Zr3Hg crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3n space group. Zr(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr(1) and four equivalent Hg(1) atoms. Hg(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Zr(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing HgZr12 cuboctahedra.
Zr3Hg crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3n space group. Zr(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr(1) and four equivalent Hg(1) atoms. Both Zr(1)-Zr(1) bond lengths are 2.80 Å. All Zr(1)-Hg(1) bond lengths are 3.13 Å. Hg(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Zr(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing HgZr12 cuboctahedra.
