The structure described by LuYbB24 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. Lu(1) is bonded in a 24-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent B(1) and twelve equivalent B(3) atoms. Yb(1) is bonded in a 24-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent B(1) and twelve equivalent B(2) atoms. There are three inequivalent B sites. In the first B site, B(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Lu(1), one Yb(1), one B(2), one B(3), and three equivalent B(1) atoms. In the second B site, B(2) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Yb(1), two equivalent B(1), and three equivalent B(2) atoms. In the third B site, B(3) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Lu(1), two equivalent B(1), and three equivalent B(3) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
