Pseudo-threefold symmetry of the AlO6 octahedra in GdAlO3. Foreshortened Gd—O1 [2.3069 (7) Å] and Gd—O2 [2.3391 (5) Å] bonds (all symmetry combinations) induce static tilting of the octahedra about a Gd—Al—Gdix [2 × 3.0793 (3) Å] axis. [Symmetry codes: (i) − x, −y, + z; (ii) −1 + x, y, z; (iii) − x, + y, + z; (iv) − x, −y, + z; (v) + x, − y, − z; (vi) + x, y, − z; (vii) −x, −y, 2 − z; (viii) + x, − y, − z; (ix) −x, + y, 2 − z; (x) 1 − x, + y, 2 − z.] |
