Zn2Zr3 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mnm space group. There are three inequivalent Zr sites. In the first Zr site, Zr(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Zn(1) atoms. In the second Zr site, Zr(3) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. In the third Zr site, Zr(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. Zn(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr(1), three equivalent Zr(2), three equivalent Zr(3), and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms.
Zn2Zr3 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mnm space group. There are three inequivalent Zr sites. In the first Zr site, Zr(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Zn(1) atoms. All Zr(1)-Zn(1) bond lengths are 3.03 Å. In the second Zr site, Zr(3) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. There are two shorter (2.80 Å) and four longer (2.93 Å) Zr(3)-Zn(1) bond lengths. In the third Zr site, Zr(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. There are two shorter (2.80 Å) and four longer (2.88 Å) Zr(2)-Zn(1) bond lengths. Zn(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr(1), three equivalent Zr(2), three equivalent Zr(3), and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms. There is one shorter (2.61 Å) and one longer (2.68 Å) Zn(1)-Zn(1) bond length.
