(K)2CsAlCl6 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure consists of eight 7440-09-7 atoms inside a CsAlCl6 framework. In the CsAlCl6 framework, Cs(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form CsCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Al(1)Cl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. Al(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form AlCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cs(1)Cl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. Cl(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Cs(1) and one Al(1) atom.
