Sc2C(ScBr2)4ScBr(Br)3 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of three hydrogen bromide atoms, one Sc2C cluster, one ScBr cluster, and four ScBr2 clusters. In the Sc2C cluster, there are two inequivalent Sc sites. In the first Sc site, Sc(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(1) atom. In the second Sc site, Sc(5) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one C(1) atom. C(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Sc(3) and one Sc(5) atom. In the ScBr cluster, Sc(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Br(3) atom. Br(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sc(4) atom. In each ScBr2 cluster, Sc(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Br(11) and one Br(4) atom. There are two inequivalent Br sites. In the first Br site, Br(11) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sc(1) atom. In the second Br site, Br(4) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Sc(1) atom.
