The compound described by TbFe5Al7 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. Tb(1) is bonded in a 20-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Fe(2), eight equivalent Fe(1), one Al(1), one Al(2), two equivalent Al(3), two equivalent Al(4), and four equivalent Al(5) atoms. There are two inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Tb(1), one Fe(2), two equivalent Fe(1), one Al(1), one Al(2), one Al(4), two equivalent Al(3), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms. In the second Fe site, Fe(2) is bonded to two equivalent Tb(1), four equivalent Fe(1), two equivalent Al(2), two equivalent Al(3), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing FeTb2Al6Fe4 cuboctahedra. There are five inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to one Tb(1), four equivalent Fe(1), one Al(2), two equivalent Al(4), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms. In the second Al site, Al(2) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Tb(1), two equivalent Fe(2), four equivalent Fe(1), one Al(1), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms. In the third Al site, Al(3) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to one Tb(1), one Fe(2), four equivalent Fe(1), one Al(3), one Al(4), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms. In the fourth Al site, Al(4) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Tb(1), four equivalent Fe(1), two equivalent Al(1), two equivalent Al(3), and two equivalent Al(5) atoms. In the fifth Al site, Al(5) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Tb(1), one Fe(2), four equivalent Fe(1), one Al(1), one Al(2), one Al(4), and two equivalent Al(3) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
