PtV crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. V(1) is bonded to six equivalent V(1) and six equivalent Pt(1) atoms to form distorted VV6Pt6 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent V(1)V6Pt6 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent V(1)V6Pt6 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent Pt(1)V6Pt6 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent V(1)V6Pt6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Pt(1)V6Pt6 cuboctahedra. Pt(1) is bonded to six equivalent V(1) and six equivalent Pt(1) atoms to form distorted PtV6Pt6 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Pt(1)V6Pt6 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent V(1)V6Pt6 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent Pt(1)V6Pt6 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Pt(1)V6Pt6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent V(1)V6Pt6 cuboctahedra.
