TaCRu3 is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. Ta(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Ru(1) atoms to form TaRu12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Ta(1)Ru12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Ta(1)Ru12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent C(1)Ru6 octahedra. Ru(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent Ta(1) and two equivalent C(1) atoms. C(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ru(1) atoms to form CRu6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent C(1)Ru6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Ta(1)Ru12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted.

All Ta(1)-Ru(1) bond lengths are 2.87 Å. Ru(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent Ta(1) and two equivalent C(1) atoms. Both Ru(1)-C(1) bond lengths are 2.03 Å. C(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ru(1) atoms to form CRu6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent C(1)Ru6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Ta(1)Ru12 cuboctahedra.
