HoNiIn crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. Ho(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to one Ni(2), four equivalent Ni(1), and six equivalent In(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ni sites. In the first Ni site, Ni(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho(1) and three equivalent In(1) atoms. In the second Ni site, Ni(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ho(1) and six equivalent In(1) atoms. In(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho(1), two equivalent Ni(1), and two equivalent Ni(2) atoms.
HoNiIn crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. Ho(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to one Ni(2), four equivalent Ni(1), and six equivalent In(1) atoms. The Ho(1)-Ni(2) bond length is 3.04 Å. All Ho(1)-Ni(1) bond lengths are 2.91 Å. There are two shorter (3.10 Å) and four longer (3.25 Å) Ho(1)-In(1) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Ni sites. In the first Ni site, Ni(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho(1) and three equivalent In(1) atoms. All Ni(1)-In(1) bond lengths are 2.80 Å. In the second Ni site, Ni(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ho(1) and six equivalent In(1) atoms. All Ni(2)-In(1) bond lengths are 2.65 Å. In(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ho(1), two equivalent Ni(1), and two equivalent Ni(2) atoms.
