| Abstract: | Cs2Zn(NH2)4] was synthesized under ammonothermal conditions (sc‐NH3, 523 K, 155 MPa) from CsNH2 and Zn. Growth of cm‐sized crystals succeeded upon application of a temperature gradient. The crystal structure is based on the motif of a hexagonal closed packing of Zn(NH2)4]2– ions with occurrence of no significant hydrogen bridges according to distances and vibrational spectroscopy. Cs+ ions are located within octahedral and tetrahedral holes of the packing. |
