The material described by Yb2RuH6 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. Yb(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent H(1) atoms to form YbH12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Yb(1)H12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Yb(1)H12 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent Ru(1)H6 octahedra. Ru(1) is bonded to six equivalent H(1) atoms to form RuH6 octahedra that share faces with eight equivalent Yb(1)H12 cuboctahedra. H(1) is bonded to four equivalent Yb(1) and one Ru(1) atom to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing HYb4Ru square pyramids. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
