NaLi2N crystallizes in the hexagonal P6/mmm space group. Na(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N(1) atoms. Li(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent N(1) atoms. N(1) is bonded to two equivalent Na(1) and six equivalent Li(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NNa2Li6 hexagonal bipyramids.
NaLi2N crystallizes in the hexagonal P6/mmm space group. Na(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N(1) atoms. Both Na(1)-N(1) bond lengths are 2.38 Å. Li(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent N(1) atoms. All Li(1)-N(1) bond lengths are 2.11 Å. N(1) is bonded to two equivalent Na(1) and six equivalent Li(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NNa2Li6 hexagonal bipyramids.
