Cr Ni Ni Au
CrNi2Au is alpha Po structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two CrNi2Au clusters. Cr(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to two equivalent Ni(1) and one Au(1) atom. Both Cr(1)-Ni(1) bond lengths are 0.78 Å. The Cr(1)-Au(1) bond length is 0.45 Å. Ni(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cr(1), one Ni(1), and one Au(1) atom. The Ni(1)-Ni(1) bond length is 0.45 Å. The Ni(1)-Au(1) bond length is 0.78 Å. Au(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cr(1) and two equivalent Ni(1) atoms.
