Materials Data on Na2CuP by Materials Project
Na2CuP crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Na1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent P3- atoms. There are a spread of Na–P bond distances ranging from 2.95–3.10 Å. Cu1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent P3- atoms. Both Cu–P bond lengths are 2.24 Å. P3- is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Na1+ and two equivalent Cu1+ atoms.
