The structure described by HoOs2 is Hexagonal Laves structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Ho(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Os(1) and nine equivalent Os(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Os sites. In the first Os site, Os(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ho(1) and six equivalent Os(2) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing OsHo6Os6 cuboctahedra. In the second Os site, Os(2) is bonded to six equivalent Ho(1), two equivalent Os(1), and four equivalent Os(2) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing OsHo6Os6 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
