(Rb)2YInCl6 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure consists of eight 7440-17-7 atoms inside a YInCl6 framework. In the YInCl6 framework, Y(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form YCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent In(1)Cl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. In(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form InCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Y(1)Cl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Y(1) and one In(1) atom.
