Primitive Cubic

Po cell pcu
Prussian Blue, (Fe⁺³)₄[Fe⁺²(CN^-)₆]₃
MOF-5 pcu-a
IRMOF-10 pcu-a
IRMOF-16 pcu-a

Pores in MOF-5, IRMOF-10, IRMOF-16 are not strictly crystallographically equivalent unless the link ring orientations are disordered. MOF-5 is also known as IRMOF-1.

Cu₃Au cell ftw
NU-1102 ftw

NU-1102 benzene ring orientation disordered.

NU-1104 ftw
CsCl cell Cs Cl bcu-b
Zn(CN)₂ more 1 2 dia
Zeolite A lta (Linde A)
ZIF-11 rho
ZIF-20 lta
MOF-TPT tbo (twisted boracite)
HKUST-1 tbo (twisted boracite)
COF-108 bor

Body Centered Cubic

Fe cell bcu
Cu₂O more 1 2 cot
Sodalite sod
ZIF-8 sod
MIL-125 bcu
MOF-101 nbo

MOF-101 bromobenzene ring orientation disordered.

Face Centered Cubic

Cu cell fcu
UMCM-3 koh

UMCM-3 benzene ring orientation disordered.

NaCl more Na Cl ast-d
AlPO-16 ast
C₆₀ (5K) fcu

UiO-67 fcu

UiO-67 benzene ring orientation disordered.

UiO-68 fcu
SUM-5 fcu

SUM-5 -N=N- disordered.

NU-109 fcu

Be patient. Many atoms makes NU-109 slow to load.

H₂O(s) 1 2 dia

Ice VII (cubic, 2.5 GPa high pressure form)*

ZnS (cubic) more Zn S dia-b
MIL-100 (Al) dia-b

Be patient. Many atoms makes MIL-100 slow to load.

Diamond dia or crs
SiO₂ (high T) crs (cristobalite)
Zeolite X,Y fau (faujasite)

MOF-1b 1 2 3 1&2 lon
LZU-111 1 2 3 1&2 lon-b
SiO₂ (quartz) qtz
