Ta Zn Zn Zn Zn Zn
TaZn5 is alpha Niobium phosphide-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one TaZn5 cluster. Ta(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Zn(3) and one Zn(5) atom. The Ta(1)-Zn(3) bond length is 0.24 Å. The Ta(1)-Zn(5) bond length is 0.83 Å. There are five inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Zn(2) and one Zn(3) atom. The Zn(1)-Zn(2) bond length is 0.88 Å. The Zn(1)-Zn(3) bond length is 0.66 Å. In the second Zn site, Zn(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Zn(1) atom. In the third Zn site, Zn(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ta(1) and one Zn(1) atom. In the fourth Zn site, Zn(4) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Zn(5) atom. The Zn(4)-Zn(5) bond length is 0.88 Å. In the fifth Zn site, Zn(5) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Ta(1) and one Zn(4) atom.
