NaGaH4 is Zircon-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Na(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent H(1) and four equivalent H(2) atoms. Ga(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to two equivalent H(1) and two equivalent H(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent H sites. In the first H site, H(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na(1) and one Ga(1) atom. In the second H site, H(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na(1) and one Ga(1) atom.
NaGaH4 is Zircon-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Na(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent H(1) and four equivalent H(2) atoms. There are two shorter (2.40 Å) and two longer (2.55 Å) Na(1)-H(1) bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.27 Å) and two longer (2.53 Å) Na(1)-H(2) bond lengths. Ga(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to two equivalent H(1) and two equivalent H(2) atoms. Both Ga(1)-H(1) bond lengths are 1.59 Å. Both Ga(1)-H(2) bond lengths are 1.58 Å. There are two inequivalent H sites. In the first H site, H(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na(1) and one Ga(1) atom. In the second H site, H(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na(1) and one Ga(1) atom.
