The structure described by Nd3(OsAl3)4 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Nd(1) is bonded in a 15-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Os(1), one Al(4), two equivalent Al(1), two equivalent Al(3), and six equivalent Al(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Os sites. In the first Os site, Os(2) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to two equivalent Al(4) and six equivalent Al(2) atoms. In the second Os site, Os(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Nd(1), two equivalent Al(1), two equivalent Al(3), and four equivalent Al(2) atoms. There are four inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Nd(1) and three equivalent Os(1) atoms. In the second Al site, Al(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Nd(1), one Os(2), and two equivalent Os(1) atoms. In the third Al site, Al(3) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Nd(1) and two equivalent Os(1) atoms. In the fourth Al site, Al(4) is bonded to three equivalent Nd(1) and two equivalent Os(2) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing AlNd3Os2 trigonal bipyramids. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
