RhSn2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmce space group. Rh(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sn(1) and four equivalent Sn(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rh(1) atoms. In the second Sn site, Sn(2) is bonded to four equivalent Rh(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing SnRh4 tetrahedra.
RhSn2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmce space group. Rh(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sn(1) and four equivalent Sn(2) atoms. All Rh(1)-Sn(1) bond lengths are 2.78 Å. There are two shorter (2.75 Å) and two longer (2.78 Å) Rh(1)-Sn(2) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rh(1) atoms. In the second Sn site, Sn(2) is bonded to four equivalent Rh(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing SnRh4 tetrahedra.
