Cd15As9O37Cl2 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are five inequivalent Cd sites. In the first Cd site, Cd is bonded to six O atoms to form distorted CdO6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with three CdClO5 pentagonal pyramids, corners with six AsO4 tetrahedra, and faces with two equivalent CdO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.42 Å. In the second Cd site, Cd is bonded to six O atoms to form distorted CdO6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with three CdClO5 pentagonal pyramids, corners with six AsO4 tetrahedra, and faces with two equivalent CdO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.32–2.42 Å. In the third Cd site, Cd is bonded to five O and one Cl atom to form distorted CdClO5 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with eight CdO6 pentagonal pyramids, corners with three AsO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one AsO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.25–2.47 Å. The Cd–Cl bond length is 2.70 Å. In the fourth Cd site, Cd is bonded to six O atoms to form distorted CdO6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with eight CdO6 pentagonal pyramids, corners with three AsO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one AsO4 tetrahedra.
