LuCuGe is Tungsten boride-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-3m1 space group. Lu(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Cu(1) and six equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Cu(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu(1), three equivalent Cu(1), and one Ge(1) atom. Ge(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu(1), one Cu(1), and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms.
LuCuGe is Tungsten boride-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-3m1 space group. Lu(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Cu(1) and six equivalent Ge(1) atoms. There are three shorter (2.90 Å) and three longer (3.07 Å) Lu(1)-Cu(1) bond lengths. There are three shorter (2.96 Å) and three longer (3.38 Å) Lu(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths. Cu(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu(1), three equivalent Cu(1), and one Ge(1) atom. All Cu(1)-Cu(1) bond lengths are 2.51 Å. The Cu(1)-Ge(1) bond length is 3.09 Å. Ge(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu(1), one Cu(1), and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. All Ge(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 2.58 Å.
