Materials Data on AuC4(N2O)2 by Materials Project

Abstract

AuC4(N2O)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one AuC4(N2O)2 sheet oriented in the (1, 0, 2) direction. Au2+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four C+3.50+ atoms. All Au–C bond lengths are 2.01 Å. There are two inequivalent C+3.50+ sites. In the first C+3.50+ site, C+3.50+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Au2+ and one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.17 Å. In the second C+3.50+ site, C+3.50+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Au2+ and one N3- atom. The C–N bond length is 1.16 Å. There are two inequivalent N3- sites. In the first N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one C+3.50+ and one O2- atom. The N–O bond length is 2.24 Å. In the second N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one C+3.50+ and one O2- atom. The N–O bond length is 2.20 Å. O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two N3- atoms.
