ZnPb3 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. Zn(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Pb(2) and eight equivalent Pb(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Pb sites. In the first Pb site, Pb(1) is bonded to four equivalent Zn(1), four equivalent Pb(1), and four equivalent Pb(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, corner, and edge-sharing PbZn4Pb8 cuboctahedra. In the second Pb site, Pb(2) is bonded to four equivalent Zn(1) and eight equivalent Pb(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, corner, and edge-sharing PbZn4Pb8 cuboctahedra.
ZnPb3 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. Zn(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Pb(2) and eight equivalent Pb(1) atoms. All Zn(1)-Pb(2) bond lengths are 3.35 Å. All Zn(1)-Pb(1) bond lengths are 3.47 Å. There are two inequivalent Pb sites.
