Be2Zn crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fmmm space group. Be(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Be(1) and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms. Zn(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Be(1) and six equivalent Zn(1) atoms.
Be2Zn crystallizes in the orthorhombic Fmmm space group. Be(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Be(1) and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms. There are a spread of Be(1)-Be(1) bond distances ranging from 2.15-2.55 Å. Both Be(1)-Zn(1) bond lengths are 2.43 Å. Zn(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Be(1) and six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. There are four shorter (2.48 Å) and two longer (2.55 Å) Zn(1)-Zn(1) bond lengths.
