Materials Data on U2InPt2 by Materials Project
U2Pt2In crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mnm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent U sites. In the first U site, U is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt and four equivalent In atoms. There are two shorter (2.85 Å) and four longer (2.98 Å) U–Pt bond lengths. All U–In bond lengths are 3.41 Å. In the second U site, U is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt and four equivalent In atoms. There are two shorter (2.85 Å) and four longer (3.01 Å) U–Pt bond lengths. All U–In bond lengths are 3.46 Å. Pt is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six U and two equivalent In atoms. Both Pt–In bond lengths are 3.05 Å. In is bonded to eight U and four equivalent Pt atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and face-sharing InU8Pt4 cuboctahedra.
