NdRuSn3 crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3n space group. There are two inequivalent Nd sites. In the first Nd site, Nd(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ru(1) and twelve equivalent Sn(1) atoms. In the second Nd site, Nd(2) is bonded in a cuboctahedral geometry to twelve equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Ru(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Nd(1) and six equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Sn(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one Nd(2), three equivalent Nd(1), two equivalent Ru(1), and three equivalent Sn(1) atoms.
NdRuSn3 crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3n space group. There are two inequivalent Nd sites. In the first Nd site, Nd(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ru(1) and twelve equivalent Sn(1) atoms. All Nd(1)-Ru(1) bond lengths are 3.45 Å. There are eight shorter (3.39 Å) and four longer (3.41 Å) Nd(1)-Sn(1) bond lengths. In the second Nd site, Nd(2) is bonded in a cuboctahedral geometry to twelve equivalent Sn(1) atoms. All Nd(2)-Sn(1) bond lengths are 3.43 Å. Ru(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Nd(1) and six equivalent Sn(1) atoms. All Ru(1)-Sn(1) bond lengths are 2.68 Å. Sn(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one Nd(2), three equivalent Nd(1), two equivalent Ru(1), and three equivalent Sn(1) atoms. There is one shorter (3.05 Å) and two longer (3.13 Å) Sn(1)-Sn(1) bond lengths.
