Materials Data on AgC2N3 by Materials Project

Abstract

AgC2N3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two AgC2N3 ribbons oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Ag1+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two N3- atoms. There are one shorter (2.09 Å) and one longer (2.10 Å) Ag–N bond lengths. There are two inequivalent C4+ sites. In the first C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two N3- atoms. There is one shorter (1.18 Å) and one longer (1.29 Å) C–N bond length. In the second C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two N3- atoms. There is one shorter (1.18 Å) and one longer (1.29 Å) C–N bond length. There are three inequivalent N3- sites. In the first N3- site, N3- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ag1+ and one C4+ atom. In the second N3- site, N3- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ag1+ and one C4+ atom. In the third N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two C4+ atoms.
