Ca13Si10H12(O17F5)2 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form CaO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra. All Ca–O bond lengths are 2.40 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four O2- and four F1- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.39–2.67 Å. There are a spread of Ca–F bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.48 Å. In the third Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to five O2- and three F1- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.35–2.81 Å. There are a spread of Ca–F bond distances ranging from 2.28–2.61 Å. There are three inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing SiO4 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (1.60 Å) and three longer (1.66 Å) Si–O bond length. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CaO6 octahedra and corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 47°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.61–1.68 Å. In the third Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing SiO4 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (1.61 Å) and three longer (1.65 Å) Si–O bond length. There are two inequivalent H1+ sites. In the first H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.98 Å. In the second H1+ site, H1+ is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.02 Å) and one longer (1.65 Å) H–O bond length. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Ca2+ and two H1+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one Si4+ and three equivalent H1+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ca2+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three Ca2+ and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ca2+ and one Si4+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Ca2+ and one Si4+ atom. There are three inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded to four Ca2+ atoms to form distorted FCa4 trigonal pyramids that share a cornercorner with one FCa6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent FCa4 trigonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one FCa4 trigonal pyramid, and a faceface with one FCa6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 46°. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded to six Ca2+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and corner-sharing FCa6 octahedra. In the third F1- site, F1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Ca2+ atoms.
