The material structure described by MgPrSi2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. Mg(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Si(1) atoms. Pr(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Si(1) and six equivalent Si(2) atoms. There are four inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mg(1), four equivalent Pr(1), and one Si(2) atom. In the second Si site, Si(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pr(1), one Si(1), and two equivalent Si(2) atoms. In the third Si site, Si(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pr(1), one Si(1), and two equivalent Si(2) atoms. In the fourth Si site, Si(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pr(1), one Si(1), and two equivalent Si(2) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
