The compound described by Sc(MnAl2)4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. Sc(1) is bonded in a 20-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Mn(1), four equivalent Al(1), and eight equivalent Al(2) atoms. Mn(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sc(1), two equivalent Mn(1), four equivalent Al(1), and four equivalent Al(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to one Sc(1), four equivalent Mn(1), one Al(1), and four equivalent Al(2) atoms. In the second Al site, Al(2) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sc(1), four equivalent Mn(1), two equivalent Al(2), and four equivalent Al(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
