The Reduced Nitridogermanates(III) Ca6 [Ge2 N6 ] and Sr6 [Ge2 N6 ] with Ge-Ge Bonds.


ABSTRACT: The first nitridogermanates(III) Ca6 [Ge2 N6 ] and Sr6 [Ge2 N6 ] were synthesized from sodium flux and structurally characterized by powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction, respectively. They crystallize isostructurally to each other and homeotypic to Ca6 [Cr2 N6 ]H in space group R 3‾ . They feature unprecedented, mutually isolated, ethane-like [GeIII 2 N6 ]12- anions in a staggered conformation. The compounds are semiconductors according to resistivity measurements and electronic structure calculations, yielding band gaps of 1.1 eV for Ca6 [Ge2 N6 ] and 0.2 eV for Sr6 [Ge2 N6 ].
