EuIn2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Eu(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent In(1) atoms. In(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Eu(1) and four equivalent In(1) atoms.
EuIn2 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Eu(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent In(1) atoms. There are six shorter (3.31 Å) and six longer (3.70 Å) Eu(1)-In(1) bond lengths. In(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Eu(1) and four equivalent In(1) atoms. There are three shorter (2.97 Å) and one longer (3.23 Å) In(1)-In(1) bond length.
