RhNiP crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. Rh(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ni(1), one P(2), and four equivalent P(1) atoms. Ni(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Rh(1), two equivalent P(1), and two equivalent P(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Rh(1) and three equivalent Ni(1) atoms. In the second P site, P(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Rh(1) and six equivalent Ni(1) atoms.
RhNiP crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. Rh(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ni(1), one P(2), and four equivalent P(1) atoms. There are four shorter (2.72 Å) and two longer (2.73 Å) Rh(1)-Ni(1) bond lengths. The Rh(1)-P(2) bond length is 2.35 Å. All Rh(1)-P(1) bond lengths are 2.55 Å. Ni(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Rh(1), two equivalent P(1), and two equivalent P(2) atoms. Both Ni(1)-P(1) bond lengths are 2.25 Å. Both Ni(1)-P(2) bond lengths are 2.35 Å. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Rh(1) and three equivalent Ni(1) atoms. In the second P site, P(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Rh(1) and six equivalent Ni(1) atoms.
