Abstract
PNb2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are twelve inequivalent Nb sites. In the first Nb site, Nb is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two equivalent P atoms. Both Nb–P bond lengths are 2.54 Å. In the second Nb site, Nb is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Nb and four P atoms. There are one shorter (2.45 Å) and one longer (2.61 Å) Nb–Nb bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.69 Å) and two longer (3.09 Å) Nb–P bond lengths. In the third Nb site, Nb is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three P atoms. There are one shorter (2.62 Å) and two longer (2.63 Å) Nb–P bond lengths. In the fourth Nb site, Nb is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four P atoms. There are two shorter (2.63 Å) and two longer (2.68 Å) Nb–P bond lengths. In the fifth Nb site, Nb is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five P atoms. There are a spread of Nb–P bond distances ranging from 2.43–2.70 Å. In the sixth Nb site, Nb is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent P atoms. Both Nb–P bondmore »
