Description
Summary:  The coordination polyhedra of bismuth(III) with/without a stereoactive electron lone pair in its coordination compounds (coordination number ≥ 8) are tabulated for a range of crystal structures published after the year 2000; the polyhedra and the presence or absence of the lone pair are expressed as polyhedral symbols. Bismuth(III) shows a preference for stereoactivity; dodecahedral, tricapped trigonal prismatic and square antiprismatic geometries constitute almost all the stereoactive cases. Between the two nine‐coordinated cases, the Ψ‐tricapped trigonal prism predominates over the Ψ‐monocapped square antiprism.
