Abstract: Crystals of the title compound, CsCd(P₃O₉), were grown from a melt. The structure is isotypic with CsCdP₃O₉. The three-dimensional framework is built up from [CaO₆] octahedra linked together via corner-sharing to cyclic [P₃O₉]^3- anions. The Cs cations are situated in large cavities in the [CaP₃O₉]^- anion framework. Except for one P and three O atoms, all other atoms (one Cs, one Ca, one P and three O atoms) are located on mirror planes.
