CeCdTl crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Ce(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cd(1) and six equivalent Tl(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and edge-sharing CeTl6Cd6 cuboctahedra. Cd(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ce(1) and five equivalent Tl(1) atoms. Tl(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ce(1) and five equivalent Cd(1) atoms.
CeCdTl crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Ce(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cd(1) and six equivalent Tl(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and edge-sharing CeTl6Cd6 cuboctahedra. All Ce(1)-Cd(1) bond lengths are 3.42 Å. All Ce(1)-Tl(1) bond lengths are 3.42 Å. Cd(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ce(1) and five equivalent Tl(1) atoms. There are three shorter (2.94 Å) and two longer (3.51 Å) Cd(1)-Tl(1) bond lengths. Tl(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ce(1) and five equivalent Cd(1) atoms.
