Abstract
The synthesis of a hitherto unknown 6:5 phase in the quasi-binary syst em RbCl/PbCl2 and its structure determination is reported. The compoun d Rb6Pb5Cl16 crystallizes in the tetragonal space group P4/mbm with a large variety of different coordination polyhedra for the cations. Spe cial feature of the structure is a statistical distribution of Rb and Pb at one of the cation sites with a ratio of 1:3 as defined by electr oneutrality. There is no evidence for symmetry reduction by ordering.
