ThSnI6 is Upper Bainite-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-31c space group. Th(1) is bonded to six equivalent I(1) atoms to form ThI6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Sn(1)I6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 48°. Sn(1) is bonded to six equivalent I(1) atoms to form SnI6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Th(1)I6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 48°. I(1) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Th(1) and one Sn(1) atom.
