SrCN2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Sr(1) is bonded to three equivalent N(1) and three equivalent N(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing SrN6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 65°. C(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one N(1) and one N(2) atom. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded to three equivalent Sr(1) and one C(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing NSr3C tetrahedra. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded to three equivalent Sr(1) and one C(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing NSr3C tetrahedra.

Sr(1) is bonded to three equivalent N(1) and three equivalent N(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing SrN6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 65°. There is one shorter (2.61 Å) and two longer (2.64 Å) Sr(1)-N(1) bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.63 Å) and one longer (2.67 Å) Sr(1)-N(2) bond length. C(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one N(1) and one N(2) atom. The C(1)-N(1) bond length is 1.23 Å. The C(1)-N(2) bond length is 1.23 Å. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded to three equivalent Sr(1) and one C(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing NSr3C tetrahedra.
