Yb2Cu2In crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mbm space group. Yb(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Cu(1) and four equivalent In(1) atoms. Cu(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Yb(1), one Cu(1), and two equivalent In(1) atoms. In(1) is bonded to eight equivalent Yb(1) and four equivalent Cu(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and face-sharing InYb8Cu4 cuboctahedra.
Yb2Cu2In crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mbm space group. Yb(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Cu(1) and four equivalent In(1) atoms. There are two shorter (2.83 Å) and four longer (2.89 Å) Yb(1)-Cu(1) bond lengths. All Yb(1)-In(1) bond lengths are 3.29 Å. Cu(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Yb(1), one Cu(1), and two equivalent In(1) atoms. The Cu(1)-Cu(1) bond length is 2.46 Å. Both Cu(1)-In(1) bond lengths are 2.97 Å. In(1) is bonded to eight equivalent Yb(1) and four equivalent Cu(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and face-sharing InYb8Cu4 cuboctahedra.
