Cr3Pt crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Cr(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Cr(1) and four equivalent Pt(1) atoms. Pt(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing PtCr12 cuboctahedra.
Cr3Pt crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Cr(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Cr(1) and four equivalent Pt(1) atoms. There are a spread of Cr(1)-Cr(1) bond distances ranging from 2.41-2.94 Å. There are two shorter (2.64 Å) and two longer (2.68 Å) Cr(1)-Pt(1) bond lengths. Pt(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing PtCr12 cuboctahedra.
