Materials Data on AcCd3 by Materials Project
AcCd3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ac is bonded to twelve equivalent Cd atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and corner-sharing AcCd12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.43 Å) and six longer (3.61 Å) Ac–Cd bond lengths. Cd is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ac and six equivalent Cd atoms. There are four shorter (3.17 Å) and two longer (3.24 Å) Cd–Cd bond lengths.
