Rb2Cd3(B4O7)4 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–O bond distances ranging from 2.93–3.53 Å. There are two inequivalent Cd2+ sites. In the first Cd2+ site, Cd2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CdO6 octahedra that share corners with eight BO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.32–2.41 Å. In the second Cd2+ site, Cd2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CdO6 octahedra that share corners with eight BO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.26–2.40 Å. There are eight inequivalent B3+ sites. In the first B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.37 Å) and two longer (1.38 Å) B–O bond length. In the second B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form BO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three CdO6 octahedra and corners with two BO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 59–68°. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.48–1.51 Å. In the third B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form BO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three CdO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one BO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 54–68°. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.47–1.50 Å. In the fourth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form BO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three CdO6 octahedra and corners with two BO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 63–67°. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.46–1.53 Å. In the fifth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form BO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three CdO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one BO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 61–71°. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.47–1.50 Å. In the sixth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.38 Å) and one longer (1.39 Å) B–O bond length. In the seventh B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.36–1.40 Å. In the eighth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.36–1.39 Å. There are fourteen inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Cd2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cd2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cd2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cd2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Cd2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cd2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Cd2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cd2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cd2+ and two B3+ atoms. In the thirteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the fourteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rb1+ and two B3+ atoms.
