MgZn crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. There are two inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zn(1) and four equivalent Zn(2) atoms. In the second Mg site, Mg(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zn(1) and four equivalent Zn(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(2), four equivalent Mg(1), and four equivalent Zn(2) atoms. In the second Zn site, Zn(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(2), four equivalent Mg(1), one Zn(2), and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms.
MgZn crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. There are two inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zn(1) and four equivalent Zn(2) atoms. There is one shorter (2.77 Å) and one longer (2.84 Å) Mg(1)-Zn(1) bond length. There are two shorter (2.83 Å) and two longer (2.84 Å) Mg(1)-Zn(2) bond lengths. In the second Mg site, Mg(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Zn(1) and four equivalent Zn(2) atoms. Both Mg(2)-Zn(1) bond lengths are 2.97 Å. There are two shorter (2.91 Å) and two longer (2.94 Å) Mg(2)-Zn(2) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(2), four equivalent Mg(1), and four equivalent Zn(2) atoms. All Zn(1)-Zn(2) bond lengths are 2.65 Å. In the second Zn site, Zn(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(2), four equivalent Mg(1), one Zn(2), and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms. The Zn(2)-Zn(2) bond length is 2.76 Å.
