ZrW4Si is Hexagonal Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Zr(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent W(1) and four equivalent Si(1) atoms. W(1) is bonded to three equivalent Zr(1), six equivalent W(1), and three equivalent Si(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner, face, and edge-sharing WZr3Si3W6 cuboctahedra. Si(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Zr(1) and twelve equivalent W(1) atoms.
ZrW4Si is Hexagonal Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Zr(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent W(1) and four equivalent Si(1) atoms. All Zr(1)-W(1) bond lengths are 3.13 Å. All Zr(1)-Si(1) bond lengths are 3.27 Å. W(1) is bonded to three equivalent Zr(1), six equivalent W(1), and three equivalent Si(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner, face, and edge-sharing WZr3Si3W6 cuboctahedra. There are three shorter (2.65 Å) and three longer (2.68 Å) W(1)-W(1) bond lengths. All W(1)-Si(1) bond lengths are 3.13 Å. Si(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Zr(1) and twelve equivalent W(1) atoms.
