Nd2Ni2Sn crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. Nd(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ni(1) and four equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Ni(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Nd(1), one Ni(1), and two equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Sn(1) is bonded to eight equivalent Nd(1) and four equivalent Ni(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing SnNd8Ni4 cuboctahedra.
Nd2Ni2Sn crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. Nd(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ni(1) and four equivalent Sn(1) atoms. There are four shorter (3.03 Å) and two longer (3.04 Å) Nd(1)-Ni(1) bond lengths. There are two shorter (3.34 Å) and two longer (3.35 Å) Nd(1)-Sn(1) bond lengths. Ni(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Nd(1), one Ni(1), and two equivalent Sn(1) atoms. The Ni(1)-Ni(1) bond length is 2.41 Å. Both Ni(1)-Sn(1) bond lengths are 2.73 Å. Sn(1) is bonded to eight equivalent Nd(1) and four equivalent Ni(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing SnNd8Ni4 cuboctahedra.
