Abstract
The structures of chalcogenides where some large S2−, Se2−, Te2− anions are closely surrounded by 6–12 Cu+ or Ag+ cations in 3–4 coordination are considered. These compact (X2−Mn+) groups, being the anion-centered clusters (ACCs), can be thought as highly charged voluminous analogues of large K, Rb, T1(I), Cs cations. Together they perform related structural functions.
