Abstract: The crystal structure of CuISe3 has been determined. CuISe3 is a rhombohedral crystal with space group R 3 m and lattice parameters a = 1407.9(6) pm, c = 1418.7(2) pm (hexagonal setting). The structure consists of six-membered Se-rings in chain-type configuration, which are surrounded by rhombs of Cu2I2-units oriented parallel to the c-direction and alternating in height. A comparison with the crystal structure of CuBrSe3 is given.
