In chemistry, the trigonal prismatic molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where six atoms, groups of atoms, or ligands are arranged around a central atom, defining the vertices of a triangular prism. The structure commonly occurs for d 0, d 1 and d 2 transition metal complexes with covalently-bound ligands and small charge ...
In chemistry, the tricapped trigonal prismatic molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where nine atoms, groups of atoms, or ligands are arranged around a central atom, defining the vertices of a triaugmented triangular prism (a trigonal prism with an extra atom attached to each of its three rectangular faces). [1]
In chemistry, the capped trigonal prismatic molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where seven atoms or groups of atoms or ligands are arranged around a central atom defining the vertices of an augmented triangular prism.
One example of the bicapped trigonal prismatic molecular geometry is the ZrF 4− 8 ion. [1] The bicapped trigonal prismatic coordination geometry is found in the plutonium(III) bromide crystal structure type, which is adopted by many of the bromides and iodides of the lanthanides and actinides.

The augmented triangular prism can be constructed from a triangular prism by attaching an equilateral square pyramid to one of its square faces, a process known as augmentation. [1] This square pyramid covers the square face of the prism, so the resulting polyhedron has 6 equilateral triangles and 2 squares as its faces. [2]
A triangular bipyramid with regular faces is numbered as the twelfth Johnson solid . [10] It is an example of a composite polyhedron because it is constructed by attaching two regular tetrahedra. [11] [12] A triangular bipyramid's surface area is six times that of each triangle
The dual polyhedron of the triaugmented triangular prism has a face for each vertex of the triaugmented triangular prism, and a vertex for each face. It is an enneahedron (that is, a nine-sided polyhedron) [ 16 ] that can be realized with three non-adjacent square faces, and six more faces that are congruent irregular pentagons . [ 17 ]
3D model of a biaugmented triangular prism. In geometry, the biaugmented triangular prism is a polyhedron constructed from a triangular prism by attaching two equilateral square pyramids onto two of its square faces. It is an example of Johnson solid. It can be found in stereochemistry in bicapped trigonal prismatic molecular geometry.
