UZn3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. U(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Zn(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and corner-sharing UZn12 cuboctahedra. Zn(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent U(1) and six equivalent Zn(1) atoms.
UZn3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. U(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Zn(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and corner-sharing UZn12 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (2.97 Å) and six longer (3.17 Å) U(1)-Zn(1) bond lengths. Zn(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent U(1) and six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. There are four shorter (2.74 Å) and two longer (2.85 Å) Zn(1)-Zn(1) bond lengths.
