crystal structure - How to get ionic radii for coordination number 12?

I am studying $\ce{ABX3}$ perovskites, and I would like to calculate Goldschmidt tolerance factors for them. The $\ce{A}$ sites in these materials have a coordination number $12$.

The Shannon's paper (R. D. Shannon, Revised effective ionic radii and systematic studies of interatomic distances in halides and chalcogenides. Acta. Cryst. A 32, 751 (1976)) provides values for ionic radii for the coordination number $12$ only for a few elements, but doesn't do it for most other elements.

Are there any sources, where I can get ionic radii for $\text{C.N.} = 12$ for all elements?

Answer

The commonly used method of obtaining ionic radii for higher coordination numbers (C.N.) is to extrapolate values from the Shannon's scale [1] using the relationship between ionic radius and coordination number proposed by Zachariasen [2]:

... the bond lengths $D(N_1)$ and $D(N_2)$ for cation coordination numbers $N_1$ and $N_2$ were related as follows

$$D(N_2)=D(N_1)(N_2A_1/N_1A_2)^{1/n} \tag{1}$$

where $n + 1$ is the exponent in the Born repulsion term of the lattice energy and $A_1/A_2$ is the ratio of the Madelung constants. The quantity $A_1/A_2$ was taken to be $0.972$ for $N_2/N_1 = 12/9 = 8/6 = 4/3$ and $0.927$ for $N_2/N_1 = 12/8 = 9/6 = 6/4 = 3/2$.

Jia [3] used Zachariasen's formula and published effective ionic radii for all lanthanides with C.N. $6$ to $12$.

Using the same approach, selected ionic radii for the 12-coordinated $\ce{A}$-sites in oxo-perovskites $\ce{ABO3}$ [4] as well as halide perovskites $\ce{ABX3}$ [5] have been determined.
