The compound described by Zr5RuSb3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mcm space group. There are two inequivalent Zr sites. In the first Zr site, Zr(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sb(1) atoms. In the second Zr site, Zr(2) is bonded to two equivalent Ru(1) and five equivalent Sb(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, corner, and edge-sharing ZrSb5Ru2 pentagonal bipyramids. Ru(1) is bonded to six equivalent Zr(2) atoms to form face-sharing RuZr6 octahedra. Sb(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Zr(1) and five equivalent Zr(2) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
