Materials Data on TlNCl4 by Materials Project
(TlCl4)2N2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two ammonia molecules and two TlCl4 clusters. In each TlCl4 cluster, Tl1+ is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to four Cl1- atoms. There are two shorter (2.38 Å) and two longer (2.63 Å) Tl–Cl bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Tl1+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Tl1+ atom.
