The material structure described by Ho5Pt2Bi crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mcm space group. There are two inequivalent Ho sites. In the first Ho site, Ho(1) is bonded to four equivalent Pt(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing HoBi2Pt4 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-48°. In the second Ho site, Ho(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Pt(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms. Pt(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ho(1) and six equivalent Ho(2) atoms. Bi(1) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to two equivalent Ho(1) and eight equivalent Ho(2) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
