Cr(v)–Cr(v) dimers in Ae4[Cr2N6] (Ae = Ca and Sr)

Abstract

Single crystals of the isostructural compounds Ae4[Cr2N6] (Ae = Ca and Sr) were synthesised from the elements in a mixed sodium–gallium melt at 900 °C. The reactions were performed in sealed niobium tubes with NaN3 as the nitrogen source. The compounds crystallise in the triclinic space group P[1 with combining macron] (No. 2) with similar lattice parameters. The structure contains [Cr2N6]8−, isolated anionic units of edge-sharing tetrahedra that permit chromium–chromium bonding.
