Materials Data on CdCN2 by Materials Project
CdCN2 crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of three hydrogen cyanide molecules and three CdN sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In each CdN sheet, Cd2+ is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent N3- atoms. All Cd–N bond lengths are 2.27 Å. N3- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Cd2+ atoms.
