Materials Data on ScAu2 by Materials Project
Au2Sc crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sc2+ is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to ten equivalent Au1- atoms. There are eight shorter (2.91 Å) and two longer (2.99 Å) Sc–Au bond lengths. Au1- is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Sc2+ atoms.
