CsMnO2Cl3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pcca space group. Cs(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1), two equivalent Cl(1), and six equivalent Cl(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing CsCl8O4 cuboctahedra. Mn(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent Cl(1), and two equivalent Cl(2) atoms. O(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cs(1), one Mn(1), and one O(1) atom. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Cs(1) and two equivalent Mn(1) atoms. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three equivalent Cs(1) and one Mn(1) atom.
