The compound described by CeAu6 is beta Plutonium-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Ce(1) is bonded in a 14-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Au(1), six equivalent Au(2), and six equivalent Au(3) atoms. There are three inequivalent Au sites. In the first Au site, Au(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ce(1), three equivalent Au(1), and four equivalent Au(3) atoms. In the second Au site, Au(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ce(1), two equivalent Au(1), three equivalent Au(2), and three equivalent Au(3) atoms. In the third Au site, Au(3) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ce(1), two equivalent Au(3), three equivalent Au(1), and four equivalent Au(2) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
