Abstract

(N2)3(P2N3O)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of twelve nitrogen molecules and four P2N3O clusters. In each P2N3O cluster, there are four inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to three N+1.33- and one O2- atom. There is one shorter (1.63 Å) and two longer (1.70 Å) P–N bond length. The P–O bond length is 1.49 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two N+1.33- atoms. There is one shorter (1.50 Å) and one longer (1.55 Å) P–N bond length. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one N+1.33- and one O2- atom. The P–N bond length is 1.59 Å. The P–O bond length is 1.48 Å. In the fourth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three N+1.33- atoms. There is two shorter (1.56 Å) and one longer (1.60 Å) P–N bond length. There are six inequivalent N+1.33- sites. In the first N+1.33- site, N+1.33- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P5+ atom. In the second N+1.33- site, N+1.33- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P5+ atom. In the third N+1.33- site, N+1.33- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the fourth N+1.33- site, N+1.33- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the fifth N+1.33- site, N+1.33- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P5+ atom. In the sixth N+1.33- site, N+1.33- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P5+ atom.
