Tl2Ca3O6 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbam space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form distorted CaO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent TlO6 octahedra, corners with six CaO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one CaO7 pentagonal bipyramid, edges with three CaO6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent TlO6 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent CaO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 21–72°. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.47–2.71 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CaO6 octahedra that share corners with four CaO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent CaO7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with three equivalent CaO6 octahedra, edges with six TlO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one CaO7 pentagonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–65°. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.46 Å. In the third Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CaO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent CaO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent TlO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent CaO7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent CaO6 octahedra, edges with four TlO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent CaO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 8–65°. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.52 Å. There are two inequivalent Tl3+ sites. In the first Tl3+ site, Tl3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted TlO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent CaO6 octahedra, corners with three TlO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent CaO7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with three TlO6 octahedra, and edges with six CaO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–59°. There are a spread of Tl–O bond distances ranging from 2.25–2.68 Å. In the second Tl3+ site, Tl3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TlO6 octahedra that share corners with four TlO6 octahedra, edges with four CaO6 octahedra, edges with four TlO6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent CaO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–4°. There are a spread of Tl–O bond distances ranging from 2.13–2.54 Å. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites.
