Materials Data on Lu5Pt3 by Materials Project
Lu5Pt3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Lu sites. In the first Lu site, Lu is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt atoms. All Lu–Pt bond lengths are 2.96 Å. In the second Lu site, Lu is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Pt atoms. There are a spread of Lu–Pt bond distances ranging from 2.88–3.24 Å. Pt is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine Lu atoms.
