description: Ba4Ca4Cu6Tl3O19 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ba2+ sites. In the first Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.71–2.96 Å. In the second Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.76–3.08 Å. There are two inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. All Ca–O bond lengths are 2.50 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.42 Å) and four longer (2.59 Å) Ca–O bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Cu+2.17+ sites. In the first Cu+2.17+ site, Cu+2.17+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.93 Å. In the second Cu+2.17+ site, Cu+2.17+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to five O2- atoms. There are four shorter (1.94 Å) and one longer (2.73 Å) Cu–O bond lengths. In the third Cu+2.17+ site, Cu+2.17+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.93 Å. There are two inequivalent Tl3+ sites. In the first Tl3+ site, Tl3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing TlO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 9°. There are a spread of Tl–O bond distances ranging from 2.03–2.74 Å. In the second Tl3+ site, Tl3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TlO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. There are two shorter (2.10 Å) and four longer (2.73 Å) Tl–O bond lengths. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Ca2+, and two equivalent Cu+2.17+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ba2+ and one Tl3+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ca2+ and two equivalent Cu+2.17+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing OCa4Cu2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–66°. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Ca2+, and two equivalent Cu+2.17+ atoms to form distorted OBa2Ca2Cu2 octahedra that share corners with ten OBaTl5 octahedra, edges with three OCa4Cu2 octahedra, and faces with four equivalent OBa2Ca2Cu2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–66°. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Ba2+ and five equivalent Tl3+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OBaTl5 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 9–44°. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ba2+, one Cu+2.17+, and one Tl3+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Ba2+ and four equivalent Tl3+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OBa2Tl4 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°.
