The compound described by AlSnF5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. Al(1) is bonded to two equivalent F(1), two equivalent F(2), and two equivalent F(3) atoms to form AlF6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent Al(1)F6 octahedra and corners with six equivalent Sn(1)F6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-51°. Sn(1) is bonded to two equivalent F(2) and four equivalent F(1) atoms to form SnF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Al(1)F6 octahedra and edges with two equivalent Sn(1)F6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-51°. There are three inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Al(1) and two equivalent Sn(1) atoms. In the second F site, F(2) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Al(1) and one Sn(1) atom. In the third F site, F(3) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Al(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
