Materials Data on Mg2CdPt by Materials Project
Mg2PtCd crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of two Mg2PtCd ribbons oriented in the (1, 0, 0) direction. Mg is bonded in a linear geometry to one Pt and one Cd atom. The Mg–Pt bond length is 2.42 Å. The Mg–Cd bond length is 2.81 Å. Pt is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Mg atoms. Cd is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Mg atoms.
