The material structure described by TmFe5Al7 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. Tm(1) is bonded in a 20-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Fe(2), eight equivalent Fe(1), one Al(1), one Al(2), two equivalent Al(3), two equivalent Al(4), and four equivalent Al(5) atoms. There are two inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Tm(1), one Fe(2), two equivalent Fe(1), one Al(1), one Al(2), one Al(4), two equivalent Al(3), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms. In the second Fe site, Fe(2) is bonded to two equivalent Tm(1), four equivalent Fe(1), two equivalent Al(2), two equivalent Al(3), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing FeTm2Al6Fe4 cuboctahedra. There are five inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to one Tm(1), four equivalent Fe(1), one Al(2), two equivalent Al(4), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms. In the second Al site, Al(2) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Tm(1), two equivalent Fe(2), four equivalent Fe(1), one Al(1), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms. In the third Al site, Al(3) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to one Tm(1), one Fe(2), four equivalent Fe(1), one Al(3), one Al(4), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms. In the fourth Al site, Al(4) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Tm(1), four equivalent Fe(1), two equivalent Al(1), two equivalent Al(3), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms. In the fifth Al site, Al(5) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Tm(1), one Fe(2), four equivalent Fe(1), one Al(1), one Al(2), one Al(4), and two equivalent Al(3) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
