ThPtSn is half-Heusler structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Th(1) is bonded to four equivalent Pt(1) and six equivalent Sn(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and face-sharing ThSn6Pt4 tetrahedra. Pt(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Th(1) and four equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Sn(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Th(1) and four equivalent Pt(1) atoms.
