Abstract The new ternary thallium chalcogenides Tl4Si2S6, Tl4Si2Se6, and Tl4Ge2Se6 were synthetized from the elements. The compounds crystallize in the triclinic system (space group P $$\bar 1$$ ) with the cell parametersa=6.699 (5),b=6.645 (4),c=8.380 (5) Å, α=90.32 (5), β=112.00 (5), γ=112.32 (5)° for Tl4Si2S6,a=6.875 (2),b=6.866 (2),c=8.731 (2) Å, α=90.50 (2), β=111.69 (2), γ=113.70 (2)° for Tl4Si2Se6,a=6.925 (6),b=6.934 (7),c=8.771 (6) Å, α=90.55 (7), β=111.42 (6), γ=114.45 (7) for Tl4Ge2Se6 andZ=1 for all cases. On the basis of single crystal X-ray intensity data the compounds were shown to be isostructural with Tl4Ge2S 6 1 . The crystal structures of Tl4Si2S6, Tl4Si2Se6, and Tl4Ge2Se6 are characterized by anions [Si2S6]4−, [Si2Se6]4−, and [Ge2Se6]4− which consist of two tetrahedral SiS4, SiSe4, and GeSe4 groups, respectively, with a common edge. A short comparative discussion of dinuclear tetrahedral thio- and selenoanions of main group elements is given.
