K2YAuCl6 is (Cubic) Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded to twelve equivalent Cl1- atoms to form KCl12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent KCl12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent KCl12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent YCl6 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent AuCl6 octahedra. All K–Cl bond lengths are 3.80 Å. Y3+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form YCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent AuCl6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent KCl12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Y–Cl bond lengths are 2.63 Å. Au1+ is bonded to six equivalent Cl1- atoms to form AuCl6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent YCl6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent KCl12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Au–Cl bond lengths are 2.74 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent K1+, one Y3+, and one Au1+ atom.
