description: NaSr3NdTi5O15 crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Na1+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form distorted NaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent SrO12 cuboctahedra, corners with eight equivalent NaO12 cuboctahedra, a faceface with one SrO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.56–2.99 Å. There are four inequivalent Sr2+ sites. In the first Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form distorted SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with eight SrO12 cuboctahedra, a faceface with one NaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with five SrO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.62–3.05 Å. In the second Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six SrO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.66–2.92 Å. In the third Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent NaO12 cuboctahedra, corners with eight SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with five SrO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.94 Å. In the fourth Sr2+ site, Sr2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form SrO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve SrO12 cuboctahedra, faces with six SrO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.67–2.92 Å. Nd3+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.45 Å) and two longer (2.51 Å) Nd–O bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Ti4+ sites. In the first Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with six TiO6 octahedra and faces with four equivalent NaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–22°. There is two shorter (1.95 Å) and four longer (1.99 Å) Ti–O bond length. In the second Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with six TiO6 octahedra and faces with eight SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–11°. There is four shorter (1.96 Å) and two longer (1.99 Å) Ti–O bond length. In the third Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with six TiO6 octahedra, faces with two equivalent NaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with four SrO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–18°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.00 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two equivalent Na1+ and two Ti4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na1+, one Nd3+, and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Na1+, two Sr2+, one Nd3+, and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Na1+, two Sr2+, and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four Sr2+ and two Ti4+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four Sr2+ and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms.
