CdOCl crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3mc space group. Cd(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O(1) and four equivalent Cl(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Cd(1) atoms. Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent Cd(1) atoms.
CdOCl crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3mc space group. Cd(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O(1) and four equivalent Cl(1) atoms. All Cd(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 2.27 Å. There are three shorter (2.80 Å) and one longer (3.06 Å) Cd(1)-Cl(1) bond length. O(1) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Cd(1) atoms. Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent Cd(1) atoms.
