V2AgN3 crystallizes in the trigonal P3_121 space group. V(1) is bonded to three equivalent N(1) and three equivalent N(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing VN6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. Ag(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded to six equivalent V(1) atoms to form edge-sharing NV6 octahedra. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three equivalent V(1) and one Ag(1) atom.
V2AgN3 crystallizes in the trigonal P3_121 space group. V(1) is bonded to three equivalent N(1) and three equivalent N(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing VN6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. There are a spread of V(1)-N(1) bond distances ranging from 2.01-2.31 Å. There is one shorter (1.83 Å) and two longer (2.05 Å) V(1)-N(2) bond lengths. Ag(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N(2) atoms. Both Ag(1)-N(2) bond lengths are 2.14 Å. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded to six equivalent V(1) atoms to form edge-sharing NV6 octahedra. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three equivalent V(1) and one Ag(1) atom.
