“…Hitherto, few chalcohalides with multiple-halogens have been reported, that is, Hg 5 Ag 4 S 5 (I/Br) 2 Cl 2 , 54 Hg 3 S 2 Br 1.5 Cl 0.5 , 55 Hg 3 S 2 Br 0.5 Cl 1.5 , 56 Hg 3 S 2 Br 1.5 I 0.5 , 57 Hg 6 S 4 IBr 2 Cl, 58 and Pb 4 As 2 S 6 ICl, 49 and there is only one Pb-based halogen among them. They all display 3D frameworks with multiple M-centered units (M = Hg, Pb), and the S/X (X = Cl, Br, I) ratios of them are 5 : 4, 1 : 1 and 3 : 1, respectively.…”
