Subnitride

Subnitrides are a class of nitrides wherein the electropositive element is in excess relative to the “normal” nitrides.

Examples of subnitrides include


 * Dicyanoacetylene
 * Na16Ba6N features a nitride-centered octahedral cluster of six barium atoms embedded in a matrix of sodium.
 * Boron subnitrides (B13N2, B50N2, B6N)
