Mg4SnSi crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. The structure consists of four 7440-21-3 atoms inside a Mg4Sn framework. In the Mg4Sn framework, Mg(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Mg(1) and three equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Sn(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Mg(1) atoms.

In the Mg4Sn framework, Mg(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Mg(1) and three equivalent Sn(1) atoms. There are three shorter (2.84 Å) and three longer (2.85 Å) Mg(1)-Mg(1) bond lengths. All Mg(1)-Sn(1) bond lengths are 3.34 Å. Sn(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Mg(1) atoms.
