description: Ce3CdAlS7 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Ce3+ sites. In the first Ce3+ site, Ce3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–S bond distances ranging from 2.84–3.35 Å. In the second Ce3+ site, Ce3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–S bond distances ranging from 2.84–3.34 Å. In the third Ce3+ site, Ce3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–S bond distances ranging from 2.84–3.35 Å. In the fourth Ce3+ site, Ce3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–S bond distances ranging from 2.84–3.35 Å. In the fifth Ce3+ site, Ce3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–S bond distances ranging from 2.84–3.35 Å. In the sixth Ce3+ site, Ce3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–S bond distances ranging from 2.84–3.35 Å. There are two inequivalent Cd2+ sites. In the first Cd2+ site, Cd2+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form face-sharing CdS6 octahedra. There are three shorter (2.69 Å) and three longer (2.77 Å) Cd–S bond lengths. In the second Cd2+ site, Cd2+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form face-sharing CdS6 octahedra. There are three shorter (2.69 Å) and three longer (2.77 Å) Cd–S bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Al3+ sites. In the first Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four S2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.24 Å) and three longer (2.27 Å) Al–S bond lengths. In the second Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four S2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.24 Å) and three longer (2.27 Å) Al–S bond lengths. There are fourteen inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Ce3+ and two Cd2+ atoms. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Ce3+ and two Cd2+ atoms. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Ce3+ and two Cd2+ atoms. In the fourth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Ce3+ and two Cd2+ atoms. In the fifth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Ce3+ and two Cd2+ atoms. In the sixth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Ce3+ and two Cd2+ atoms. In the seventh S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three Ce3+ and one Al3+ atom.
