FeCu10Cd4(SnSe4)5 is Clathrate-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Fe3+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form FeSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent SnSe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight CuSe4 tetrahedra. All Fe–Se bond lengths are 2.46 Å. There are five inequivalent Cu+1.10+ sites. In the first Cu+1.10+ site, Cu+1.10+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form CuSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four CuSe4 tetrahedra, corners with four CdSe4 tetrahedra, and corners with four SnSe4 tetrahedra. There are three shorter (2.44 Å) and one longer (2.45 Å) Cu–Se bond lengths. In the second Cu+1.10+ site, Cu+1.10+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form CuSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four CuSe4 tetrahedra, corners with four CdSe4 tetrahedra, and corners with four SnSe4 tetrahedra. There are three shorter (2.44 Å) and one longer (2.45 Å) Cu–Se bond lengths. In the third Cu+1.10+ site, Cu+1.10+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form CuSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four CuSe4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent CdSe4 tetrahedra, and corners with four SnSe4 tetrahedra. All Cu–Se bond lengths are 2.44 Å. In the fourth Cu+1.10+ site, Cu+1.10+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form CuSe4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CdSe4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent FeSe4 tetrahedra, corners with four CuSe4 tetrahedra, and corners with four equivalent SnSe4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–Se bond distances ranging from 2.46–2.50 Å. In the fifth Cu+1.10+ site, Cu+1.10+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form CuSe4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one FeSe4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent CdSe4 tetrahedra, corners with four CuSe4 tetrahedra, and corners with four SnSe4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–Se bond distances ranging from 2.44–2.49 Å. There are two inequivalent Cd2+ sites. In the first Cd2+ site, Cd2+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form CdSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four SnSe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight CuSe4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.69 Å) and two longer (2.70 Å) Cd–Se bond lengths. In the second Cd2+ site, Cd2+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form CdSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four SnSe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight CuSe4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.68 Å) and two longer (2.69 Å) Cd–Se bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Sn+3.60+ sites. In the first Sn+3.60+ site, Sn+3.60+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form SnSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent FeSe4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent CdSe4 tetrahedra, and corners with eight CuSe4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sn–Se bond distances ranging from 2.64–2.67 Å. In the second Sn+3.60+ site, Sn+3.60+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form SnSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CdSe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight CuSe4 tetrahedra. There are two shorter (2.62 Å) and two longer (2.63 Å) Sn–Se bond lengths. In the third Sn+3.60+ site, Sn+3.60+ is bonded to four Se2- atoms to form SnSe4 tetrahedra that share corners with four CdSe4 tetrahedra and corners with eight CuSe4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sn–Se bond distances ranging from 2.62–2.64 Å. There are ten inequivalent Se2- sites. In the first Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to one Fe3+, two Cu+1.10+, and one Sn+3.60+ atom to form corner-sharing SeFeCu2Sn tetrahedra. In the second Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to two Cu+1.10+, one Cd2+, and one Sn+3.60+ atom to form corner-sharing SeCdCu2Sn tetrahedra. In the third Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to two equivalent Cu+1.10+, one Cd2+, and one Sn+3.60+ atom to form corner-sharing SeCdCu2Sn tetrahedra. In the fourth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to two Cu+1.10+, one Cd2+, and one Sn+3.60+ atom to form corner-sharing SeCdCu2Sn tetrahedra. In the fifth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to two Cu+1.10+, one Cd2+, and one Sn+3.60+ atom to form corner-sharing SeCdCu2Sn tetrahedra. In the sixth Se2- site, Se2- is bonded to two Cu+1.10+, one Cd2+, and one Sn+3.60+ atom to form corner-sharing SeCdCu2Sn tetrahedra.
