Rb2ScInBr6 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. Rb(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Br(1) atoms to form RbBr12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Rb(1)Br12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Rb(1)Br12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Sc(1)Br6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent In(1)Br6 octahedra. Sc(1) is bonded to six equivalent Br(1) atoms to form ScBr6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent In(1)Br6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Rb(1)Br12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. In(1) is bonded to six equivalent Br(1) atoms to form InBr6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Sc(1)Br6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Rb(1)Br12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. Br(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent Rb(1), one Sc(1), and one In(1) atom.
