The crystal structure described by AuBi3 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. Au(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Bi(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Bi sites. In the first Bi site, Bi(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Au(1) and one Bi(2) atom. In the second Bi site, Bi(2) is bonded to two equivalent Bi(1) and four equivalent Bi(2) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing BiBi6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
