Materials Data on Sm(Sn3Ru2)2 by Materials Project
Sm(Ru2Sn3)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I-42m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sm is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ru and twelve Sn atoms. All Sm–Ru bond lengths are 3.30 Å. There are a spread of Sm–Sn bond distances ranging from 3.39–3.77 Å. Ru is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Sm, two equivalent Ru, and six Sn atoms. Both Ru–Ru bond lengths are 2.85 Å. There are a spread of Ru–Sn bond distances ranging from 2.60–2.80 Å. There are two inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sm and four equivalent Ru atoms. In the second Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sm and four equivalent Ru atoms.
