The structure described by Au3Zn crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmce space group. There are three inequivalent Au sites. In the first Au site, Au(1) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Zn(1) atoms. In the second Au site, Au(2) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Zn(1) atoms. In the third Au site, Au(3) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Zn(1) atoms. Zn(1) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to two equivalent Au(1), four equivalent Au(2), and four equivalent Au(3) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
