Ba2DySbO6 is (Cubic) Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pn-3 space group. There are two inequivalent Ba sites. In the first Ba site, Ba(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent O(1) atoms to form BaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Ba(2)O12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Ba(2)O12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Dy(1)O6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent Sb(1)O6 octahedra. In the second Ba site, Ba(2) is bonded to twelve equivalent O(1) atoms to form BaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent Ba(1)O12 cuboctahedra, corners with eight equivalent Ba(2)O12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent Ba(1)O12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Ba(2)O12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Dy(1)O6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent Sb(1)O6 octahedra. Dy(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form DyO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Sb(1)O6 octahedra, faces with two equivalent Ba(1)O12 cuboctahedra, and faces with six equivalent Ba(2)O12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 6°. Sb(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form SbO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Dy(1)O6 octahedra, faces with two equivalent Ba(1)O12 cuboctahedra, and faces with six equivalent Ba(2)O12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 6°. O(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ba(1), three equivalent Ba(2), one Dy(1), and one Sb(1) atom.
