LiVCdF6 is beta Vanadium nitride-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-31c space group. Li(1) is bonded to six equivalent F(1) atoms to form LiF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cd(1)F6 octahedra and edges with three equivalent V(1)F6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 53°. V(1) is bonded to six equivalent F(1) atoms to form VF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cd(1)F6 octahedra and edges with three equivalent Li(1)F6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 50°. Cd(1) is bonded to six equivalent F(1) atoms to form CdF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Li(1)F6 octahedra and corners with six equivalent V(1)F6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 50-53°. F(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li(1), one V(1), and one Cd(1) atom.
