The structure of pentabarium ditantalum dichloride nonaoxide, Ba 5 Ta 2 Cl 2 O 9 , is isotypic with Ba 5 Ru 1.6 W 0.4 Cl 2 O 9 and with one polymorph of Ba 5 Ru 2 Cl 2 O 9 . It is related to the perovskite structure and shows a ten‐layer stacking of BaO 3 and BaCl blocks along the c axis. The Ta cations occupy octahedral interstices, forming Ta 2 O 9 dimers of distorted face‐shared TaO 6 octahedra. Except for one O atom, all atoms are situated on special positions: Ba1 (Wyckoff position m 2), Ba2 and Ba3 (3 m .), Ta (3 m .), Cl (3 m .) and O1 ( mm 2).
