The compound described by RbMg6Mo crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. Rb(1) is bonded to six equivalent Mg(1) and six equivalent Mg(2) atoms to form RbMg12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent Rb(1)Mg12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent Rb(1)Mg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with six equivalent Mo(1)Mg12 cuboctahedra. There are two inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb(1), two equivalent Mg(1), four equivalent Mg(2), and two equivalent Mo(1) atoms. In the second Mg site, Mg(2) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb(1), four equivalent Mg(1), four equivalent Mg(2), and two equivalent Mo(1) atoms. Mo(1) is bonded to six equivalent Mg(1) and six equivalent Mg(2) atoms to form MoMg12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mo(1)Mg12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent Mo(1)Mg12 cuboctahedra, and faces with six equivalent Rb(1)Mg12 cuboctahedra. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
