The crystal structure described by LuNi4Cd is Hexagonal Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Lu(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Ni(1) and four equivalent Cd(1) atoms. Ni(1) is bonded to three equivalent Lu(1), six equivalent Ni(1), and three equivalent Cd(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing NiLu3Cd3Ni6 cuboctahedra. Cd(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Lu(1) and twelve equivalent Ni(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
