The crystal structure described by CsMg6C crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. Cs(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cs(1), two equivalent Mg(1), two equivalent Mg(2), two equivalent Mg(4), and four equivalent Mg(3) atoms. There are four inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg(1) is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to one Cs(1), two equivalent Mg(4), and two equivalent C(1) atoms. In the second Mg site, Mg(2) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cs(1), two equivalent Mg(2), two equivalent Mg(4), and four equivalent Mg(3) atoms. In the third Mg site, Mg(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to two equivalent Cs(1), one Mg(4), two equivalent Mg(2), and one C(1) atom. In the fourth Mg site, Mg(4) is bonded to two equivalent Cs(1), two equivalent Mg(2), two equivalent Mg(3), two equivalent Mg(4), and four equivalent Mg(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and face-sharing MgCs2Mg10 cuboctahedra. C(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(3) and four equivalent Mg(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
