Title: Materials Data on Cu2N5Cl8 by Materials Project

Abstract

(Cu(NCl2)2)4N2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of four ammonia molecules and one Cu(NCl2)2 framework. In the Cu(NCl2)2 framework, there are two inequivalent Cu+1.50+ sites. In the first Cu+1.50+ site, Cu+1.50+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 1°. There are four shorter (2.31 Å) and two longer (2.94 Å) Cu–Cl bond lengths. In the second Cu+1.50+ site, Cu+1.50+ is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent Cl1- atoms. All Cu–Cl bond lengths are 2.46 Å. N1+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three Cl1- atoms. There are one shorter (1.66 Å) and two longer (2.40 Å) N–Cl bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu+1.50+ and one N1+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Cu+1.50+ atoms. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded to one Cu+1.50+ and four equivalent N1+ atoms to form corner-sharing ClCuN4 square pyramids.
