Cr23C6 crystal structure information

Cr₂₃C₆ is the prototypical compound of a common crystal structure, discovered in 1933^[1] as part of the chromium-carbon binary phase diagram. Over 85 known compounds adopt this structure type,^[2] which can be described as a NaCl-like packing of chromium cubes and cuboctahedra.^[3]
