Abstract

Abstract The crystal structure of sodium tricyanomethanide Na[C(CN)3] has been confirmed by Rietveld refinement of X-ray powder diffraction data. Additionally, Raman and IR spectra of the title compound have been recorded exhibiting spectra in good agreement with those of other tricyanomethanides. Despite Na[C(CN)3] and K[C(CN)3] crystallizing both in the triclinic space group P 1 ‾ $\overline{1}$ (no. 2), with seemingly similar unit cell parameters, it is demonstrated that they are clearly not isotypic compounds.
