The compound described by Lu5Sn3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mcm space group. There are two inequivalent Lu sites. In the first Lu site, Lu(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Sn(1) atoms. In the second Lu site, Lu(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Sn(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Lu(1) and five equivalent Lu(2) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
