The crystal structure described by Lu3Pt4 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. There are three inequivalent Lu sites. In the first Lu site, Lu(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one Pt(1), one Pt(2), two equivalent Pt(3), two equivalent Pt(5), and three equivalent Pt(4) atoms. In the second Lu site, Lu(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one Pt(1), one Pt(2), two equivalent Pt(3), two equivalent Pt(4), and three equivalent Pt(5) atoms. In the third Lu site, Lu(3) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one Pt(1), one Pt(2), two equivalent Pt(4), two equivalent Pt(5), and three equivalent Pt(3) atoms. There are five inequivalent Pt sites. In the first Pt site, Pt(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Lu(1), two equivalent Lu(2), and two equivalent Lu(3) atoms. In the second Pt site, Pt(2) is bonded in a distorted octahedral geometry to two equivalent Lu(1), two equivalent Lu(2), and two equivalent Lu(3) atoms. In the third Pt site, Pt(3) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Lu(1), two equivalent Lu(2), three equivalent Lu(3), one Pt(3), one Pt(4), and one Pt(5) atom. In the fourth Pt site, Pt(4) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Lu(2), two equivalent Lu(3), three equivalent Lu(1), one Pt(3), one Pt(4), and one Pt(5) atom. In the fifth Pt site, Pt(5) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Lu(1), two equivalent Lu(3), three equivalent Lu(2), one Pt(3), one Pt(4), and one Pt(5) atom. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
