The material described by RbCdCl3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Rb(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cl(1), three equivalent Cl(2), and four equivalent Cl(3) atoms. Cd(1) is bonded to one Cl(3), two equivalent Cl(2), and three equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form edge-sharing CdCl6 octahedra. There are three inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb(1) and three equivalent Cd(1) atoms. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Rb(1) and two equivalent Cd(1) atoms. In the third Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rb(1) and one Cd(1) atom. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
