description: Cu2I3Cu11I12 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one Cu11I12 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction and one Cu2I3 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. In the Cu11I12 sheet, there are eleven inequivalent Cu+1.15+ sites. In the first Cu+1.15+ site, Cu+1.15+ is bonded to four I1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuI4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–I bond distances ranging from 2.58–2.70 Å. In the second Cu+1.15+ site, Cu+1.15+ is bonded to four I1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuI4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–I bond distances ranging from 2.60–2.63 Å. In the third Cu+1.15+ site, Cu+1.15+ is bonded to four I1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuI4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–I bond distances ranging from 2.60–2.62 Å. In the fourth Cu+1.15+ site, Cu+1.15+ is bonded to four I1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuI4 tetrahedra. There are three shorter (2.61 Å) and one longer (2.62 Å) Cu–I bond lengths. In the fifth Cu+1.15+ site, Cu+1.15+ is bonded to four I1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuI4 tetrahedra.

There are a spread of Cu–I bond distances ranging from 2.59–2.63 Å. In the ninth Cu+1.15+ site, Cu+1.15+ is bonded to four I1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuI4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–I bond distances ranging from 2.59–2.63 Å. In the tenth Cu+1.15+ site, Cu+1.15+ is bonded to four I1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuI4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–I bond distances ranging from 2.57–2.64 Å. In the eleventh Cu+1.15+ site, Cu+1.15+ is bonded to four I1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuI4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–I bond distances ranging from 2.46–2.68 Å. There are twelve inequivalent I1- sites. In the first I1- site, I1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cu+1.15+ atom. In the second I1- site, I1- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Cu+1.15+ atoms. In the third I1- site, I1- is bonded to four Cu+1.15+ atoms to form corner-sharing ICu4 tetrahedra. In the fourth I1- site, I1- is bonded to four Cu+1.15+ atoms to form corner-sharing ICu4 tetrahedra. In the fifth I1- site, I1- is bonded to four Cu+1.15+ atoms to form corner-sharing ICu4 tetrahedra. In the sixth I1- site, I1- is bonded to four Cu+1.15+ atoms to form corner-sharing ICu4 tetrahedra. In the seventh I1- site, I1- is bonded to four Cu+1.15+ atoms to form corner-sharing ICu4 tetrahedra. In the eighth I1- site, I1- is bonded to four Cu+1.15+ atoms to form corner-sharing ICu4 tetrahedra. In the ninth I1- site, I1- is bonded to four Cu+1.15+ atoms to form corner-sharing ICu4 tetrahedra. In the tenth I1- site, I1- is bonded to four Cu+1.15+ atoms to form corner-sharing ICu4 tetrahedra.

In the second Cu+1.15+ site, Cu+1.15+ is bonded to four I1- atoms to form corner-sharing CuI4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–I bond distances ranging from 2.47–2.71 Å. There are three inequivalent I1- sites. In the first I1- site, I1- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Cu+1.15+ atoms. In the second I1- site, I1- is bonded to four Cu+1.15+ atoms to form corner-sharing ICu4 tetrahedra. In the third I1- site, I1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cu+1.15+ atom.
