In the first Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded to four O2- and eight F1- atoms to form distorted CsO4F8 cuboctahedra that share corners with two equivalent CsO4F8 cuboctahedra, a cornercorner with one PtO2F4 octahedra, faces with two equivalent CsO4F8 cuboctahedra, and faces with three PtO2F4 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 17°. There are a spread of Cs–O bond distances ranging from 3.25–3.36 Å. There are a spread of Cs–F bond distances ranging from 3.13–3.28 Å. In the second Cs1+ site, Cs1+ is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to four O2- and seven F1- atoms. There are a spread of Cs–O bond distances ranging from 3.19–3.41 Å.
