Tricapped trigonal prismatic molecular geometry

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]

Tricapped trigonal prismatic molecular geometry
Examples	ReH2− 9
Point group	D3h
Coordination number	9
μ (Polarity)	0

It is very similar to the capped square antiprismatic molecular geometry, and there is some dispute over the specific geometry exhibited by certain molecules.^{[citation needed]}
