Materials Data on YSiRu by Materials Project
YRuSi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Y is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ru and five equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Y–Ru bond distances ranging from 2.96–2.98 Å. There are two shorter (3.00 Å) and three longer (3.04 Å) Y–Si bond lengths. Ru is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y and four equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Ru–Si bond distances ranging from 2.47–2.58 Å. Si is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Y and four equivalent Ru atoms.
