The compound described by Cs2ThCl6 crystallizes in the trigonal P-3m1 space group. Cs(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form CsCl12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra, corners with three equivalent Th(1)Cl6 octahedra, faces with eight equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra, and faces with three equivalent Th(1)Cl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 21°. Th(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form ThCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra and faces with six equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra. Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to four equivalent Cs(1) and one Th(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
