The crystal structure described by RuTl3 is beta Cu3Ti-like structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Ru(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Tl(1) atoms to form RuTl12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent Ru(1)Tl12 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve equivalent Tl(1)Tl8Ru4 cuboctahedra, edges with eighteen equivalent Tl(1)Tl8Ru4 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent Ru(1)Tl12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Tl(1)Tl8Ru4 cuboctahedra. Tl(1) is bonded to four equivalent Ru(1) and eight equivalent Tl(1) atoms to form distorted TlTl8Ru4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent Ru(1)Tl12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen equivalent Tl(1)Tl8Ru4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent Ru(1)Tl12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent Tl(1)Tl8Ru4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Ru(1)Tl12 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen equivalent Tl(1)Tl8Ru4 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
