description: Th8Nd2O19 is alpha bismuth trifluoride-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are eight inequivalent Th4+ sites. In the first Th4+ site, Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Th–O bond distances ranging from 2.36–2.51 Å. In the second Th4+ site, Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Th–O bond distances ranging from 2.40–2.47 Å. In the third Th4+ site, Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.43 Å) and four longer (2.44 Å) Th–O bond lengths. In the fourth Th4+ site, Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.43 Å) and six longer (2.44 Å) Th–O bond lengths. In the fifth Th4+ site, Th4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are three shorter (2.43 Å) and five longer (2.44 Å) Th–O bond lengths.
