Rubidium manganese hexa­thio­diphosphate, Rb2MnP2S6, crystallizes in a structure typical of compounds of the type A2MP2Q6 (A = K, Rb, Cs; M = Mn, Fe; Q = S, Se). Its structure can be viewed as columns of [MnP2S6]2− polyhedra parallel to the a axis, interconnected by Rb+.

The tetragonal polymorph of caesium hydro­xide monohydrate, CsOH·H2O (or CsH3O2), a clathrate hydrate, contains an infinite three-dimensional hydrogen-bonded oxy­gen framework that is locally identical to layers found in the hexagonal modification.

SrMn(SeO3)2 is built up from sheets of irregular MnO5+1 units and pyramidal SeO3 groups, sharing vertices and edges. Nine-coordinate Sr2+ cations complete the structure.

The structure of HgWO4 consists of zigzag chains of edge-sharing WO6 octahedra running along the c axis and layers of corner-sharing HgO6 octahedra in the bc plane.

The crystal structure of Hg3AlF6O2H has been determined at room temperature. It comprises [HgO2F6] polyhedra and [AlF6] octahedra. Assumed hydrogen bonding between two O atoms, with O⋯O = 2.562 (9) Å, provides additional bonds in the framework.
