ScAgSn crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. Sc(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ag(1), one Sn(2), and four equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Ag(1) is bonded to six equivalent Sc(1), two equivalent Ag(1), two equivalent Sn(1), and two equivalent Sn(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, corner, and edge-sharing AgSc6Ag2Sn4 cuboctahedra. There are two inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sc(1) and six equivalent Ag(1) atoms. In the second Sn site, Sn(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sc(1) and three equivalent Ag(1) atoms.
ScAgSn crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. Sc(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ag(1), one Sn(2), and four equivalent Sn(1) atoms. There are two shorter (3.17 Å) and four longer (3.51 Å) Sc(1)-Ag(1) bond lengths. The Sc(1)-Sn(2) bond length is 3.15 Å. All Sc(1)-Sn(1) bond lengths are 3.05 Å. Ag(1) is bonded to six equivalent Sc(1), two equivalent Ag(1), two equivalent Sn(1), and two equivalent Sn(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, corner, and edge-sharing AgSc6Ag2Sn4 cuboctahedra. Both Ag(1)-Ag(1) bond lengths are 3.05 Å. Both Ag(1)-Sn(1) bond lengths are 2.77 Å. Both Ag(1)-Sn(2) bond lengths are 2.81 Å. There are two inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sc(1) and six equivalent Ag(1) atoms. In the second Sn site, Sn(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sc(1) and three equivalent Ag(1) atoms.
