The material described by V(ZnN)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. V(1) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one N(1) and two equivalent N(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent N(2) and three equivalent N(1) atoms. In the second Zn site, Zn(2) is bonded to two equivalent N(1) and two equivalent N(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing ZnN4 trigonal pyramids. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one V(1), two equivalent Zn(2), and three equivalent Zn(1) atoms. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded to two equivalent V(1), two equivalent Zn(1), and two equivalent Zn(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing NV2Zn4 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 21°. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
