The material structure described by YB2C2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mbm space group. Y(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent B(1) and eight equivalent C(1) atoms. B(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to four equivalent Y(1) and three equivalent C(1) atoms. C(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y(1) and three equivalent B(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
