The title compound was prepared from the elements by arc-melting followed by annealing in silica tubes at 1270 K for one week. The crystal structure was investigated by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction: space group Cmmm, a = 3.412(1), b = 13.699(8), c = 3.669(1) Å, V = 171.5(1) Å3, Z = 2, R1 = 0.032; wR2 = 0.087 for 123 unique reflections with Io ≥ 2σ (Io) and 11 refined parameters.
