“…The discovery that these anions could be stabilised in a solid‐state system lead to the question whether quasi‐binary acetonitriletriide compounds could be produced, since the similar anion [CN 2 ] 2− produces a large range of quasi‐binary compounds, for example, M 2 [CN 2 ] ( M =Li–Cs) and M [CN 2 ] ( M =Be–Ba, Mn–Zn, Cd, Pb, and Eu) . In addition, other linear three‐atom ions, such as [N 3 ] − , [C 3 ] 4− , [BN 2 ] 3− , [OCN] − , and [CBN] 4− , have also produced quasi‐binary and higher compounds . Herein, we report the first quasi‐binary acetonitriletriide, which was characterised by single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction, Raman spectroscopy, and elemental analysis, as well as quantum‐chemical methods.…”
