UIr2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. U(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Ir(1) atoms. Ir(1) is bonded to six equivalent U(1) and six equivalent Ir(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing IrU6Ir6 cuboctahedra.
