Sb2Cl7F3 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two Sb2Cl7F3 clusters. There are two inequivalent Sb sites. In the first Sb site, Sb(1) is bonded to one Cl(4), one Cl(5), one Cl(7), one F(1), one F(2), and one F(3) atom to form distorted corner-sharing SbCl3F3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 13-14°. In the second Sb site, Sb(2) is bonded to one Cl(1), one Cl(2), one Cl(3), one Cl(6), one F(1), and one F(3) atom to form corner-sharing SbCl4F2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 13-14°. There are seven inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb(2) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb(2) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb(2) atom. In the fourth Cl site, Cl(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb(1) atom. In the fifth Cl site, Cl(5) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb(1) atom. In the sixth Cl site, Cl(6) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb(2) atom. In the seventh Cl site, Cl(7) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb(1) atom. There are three inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Sb(1) and one Sb(2) atom. In the second F site, F(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sb(1) atom. In the third F site, F(3) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Sb(1) and one Sb(2) atom.
