Materials Data on K2MgP2 by Materials Project
K2MgP2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one K2MgP2 cluster. K1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P2- atom. The K–P bond length is 2.94 Å. Mg2+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent P2- atoms. Both Mg–P bond lengths are 2.39 Å. P2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one K1+ and one Mg2+ atom.
