[N(κN-NO₂)₂]⊖

Formula Unicode styled:

[N(κN-NO₂)₂]⊖

Compound name(s):

dinitronitrogen(1-), (dinitroazanide)

Central atom:

Nitrogen

Charge on formula unit (QN):

1–

Attached groups:

NO₂ (nitro-κN)

Compound type:

Molecular

Notes:

The nitrogen is planar with the NO₂ groups: explained by the delocalisation of the occupied lone pair at the nitrogen atom with the planar NO₂ goups - a Z interaction.
