Sc2AlC is H-Phase structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Sc(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Al(1) and three equivalent C(1) atoms. Al(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sc(1) atoms. C(1) is bonded to six equivalent Sc(1) atoms to form edge-sharing CSc6 octahedra.
