Materials Data on Lu3Ru by Materials Project
Lu3Ru is Cementite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Lu sites. In the first Lu site, Lu is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ru atoms. There are a spread of Lu–Ru bond distances ranging from 2.80–3.10 Å. In the second Lu site, Lu is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Ru atoms. There are one shorter (2.69 Å) and one longer (2.75 Å) Lu–Ru bond lengths. Ru is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Lu atoms.
