The compound described by Pt2Sn3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Pt(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to one Pt(1), three equivalent Sn(2), and four equivalent Sn(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn(1) is bonded to four equivalent Pt(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing SnPt4 tetrahedra. In the second Sn site, Sn(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
