Zr5(RhIn2)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbam space group. There are three inequivalent Zr sites. In the first Zr site, Zr(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rh(1), two equivalent In(2), and four equivalent In(1) atoms. In the second Zr site, Zr(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rh(1), two equivalent In(1), and four equivalent In(2) atoms. In the third Zr site, Zr(3) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent In(1) and four equivalent In(2) atoms. Rh(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr(1), four equivalent Zr(2), one In(1), and two equivalent In(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr(2), two equivalent Zr(3), four equivalent Zr(1), and one Rh(1) atom. In the second In site, In(2) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zr(1), two equivalent Zr(3), four equivalent Zr(2), and two equivalent Rh(1) atoms.
