The material described by RbMg6C crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. Rb(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rb(1), two equivalent Mg(3), and four equivalent Mg(2) atoms. There are four inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg(1) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(4) atoms. In the second Mg site, Mg(2) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Rb(1), one Mg(4), and two equivalent C(1) atoms. In the third Mg site, Mg(3) is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent Rb(1) and two equivalent C(1) atoms. In the fourth Mg site, Mg(4) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(2), two equivalent Mg(4), and four equivalent Mg(1) atoms. C(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(3) and four equivalent Mg(2) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
