The material structure described by Cs3Ru2Cl9 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. There are two inequivalent Cs sites. In the first Cs site, Cs(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cl(1) and six equivalent Cl(2) atoms to form CsCl12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra, corners with six equivalent Cs(2)Cl12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Cs(2)Cl12 cuboctahedra, and faces with six equivalent Ru(1)Cl6 octahedra. In the second Cs site, Cs(2) is bonded to three equivalent Cl(1) and nine equivalent Cl(2) atoms to form CsCl12 cuboctahedra that share corners with three equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra, corners with six equivalent Cs(2)Cl12 cuboctahedra, corners with three equivalent Ru(1)Cl6 octahedra, faces with three equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Cs(2)Cl12 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent Ru(1)Cl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 21°. Ru(1) is bonded to three equivalent Cl(1) and three equivalent Cl(2) atoms to form RuCl6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent Cs(2)Cl12 cuboctahedra, faces with three equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Cs(2)Cl12 cuboctahedra, and  a faceface with one Ru(1)Cl6 octahedra. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cs(1), two equivalent Cs(2), and two equivalent Ru(1) atoms. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Cs(1), three equivalent Cs(2), and one Ru(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
