tetranitride
Tetranitride is a chemical term used to describe compounds that contain four nitrogen atoms arranged in a single cluster or moiety. In practice, it can refer to neutral four-nitrogen clusters (N4) or to four-nitrogen units that exist as part of a larger compound, such as within metal-nitride complexes or other salt-like structures. The term does not designate a single fixed formula or structure, but rather a class of species that share the characteristic of four nitrogen atoms.
Structures and isomers associated with tetranitride are primarily the subject of theoretical study and niche experimental
Synthesis and occurrence are usually limited to specialized settings. Isolated tetranitride species are often generated in
Properties of tetranitride compounds are dominated by high energy content and a tendency to decompose to molecular
