Crystals of ~-KTh6F2 s are hexagonal-rhombohedral, R3m, with hexagonal axes a0= 8.313 (2), Co = 25.262 (4)/~, Z= 3 and o(cal)= 6.281 g.cm-3. Structural units of ~-KTh6F25 are identical to those of CsU6F2s and comprise two adjacent rings of Tha+-F polyhedra, 6 polyhedra per ring, with an alkali metal ion centered between the rings. The structural units are stacked ABCABC along Co in ~-KTh6F25 and ABAB in CsU6F25. K-F distances are 3.19 (2) and 3.20 (3)/~. Th-F distances range from 2.308 (1) to 2.541 (9) ,~.
