I) and Li2AgSn2 (II) are prepared by induction-melting (or in a muffle furnace) of the elements (sealed Nb ampoules, 1100 K for (I) or 900 K for (II), 3 h). The isotypic compounds crystallize in space group I41/amd with Z = 4 (powder XRD). Cu and Ag have tetrahedral tin coordination and the tetrahedra are condensed via common corners forming layers that are further condensed by Sn-Sn bonding to three-dimensional [CuSn 2 ] and [AgSn2] networks with distorted hexagonal channels hosting the Li atoms. The latter show considerable mobility with activation energies of 0.29 and 0.47 eV extracted from variable temperature 7 Li solid state NMR spectra. 119 Sn Moessbauer spectra at 78 K show signals at isomer shifts of 2.13 for (I) and 2.07 mm/s for (II). The signals show electric quadrupolar splitting because of the non-spherical environment of the Sn nuclei. -(WINTER, F.; DUPKE, S.; ECKERT, H.; RODEWALD, U. C.; POETTGEN*, R.; Z. Anorg. Allg.
