Abstract
CaMgCd crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ca sites. In the first Ca site, Ca is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four Ca, five Mg, and seven Cd atoms. There are a spread of Ca–Ca bond distances ranging from 3.66–3.78 Å. There are a spread of Ca–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.58–3.61 Å. There are a spread of Ca–Cd bond distances ranging from 3.53–3.57 Å. In the second Ca site, Ca is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ca, seven Mg, and five Cd atoms. There are a spread of Ca–Mg bond distances ranging from 3.55–3.62 Å. There are a spread of Ca–Cd bond distances ranging from 3.49–3.54 Å. There are three inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg is bonded to six Ca and six Cd atoms to form distorted MgCa6Cd6 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent CdCa6Mg4Cd2 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen MgCa6Cd6 cuboctahedra, edges with six MgCa6Cd6 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent MgCa6Mg4Cd2 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen CdCa6Mg4Cd2 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Mg–Cd bond distances ranging from 2.98–3.06 Å. In the second Mg site, Mg is bonded to six Ca,more »
