The structure described by Mg6WCo crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. There are four inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(3), two equivalent W(1), and one Co(1) atom. In the second Mg site, Mg(2) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mg(3) and two equivalent Co(1) atoms. In the third Mg site, Mg(3) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(1), two equivalent Mg(2), two equivalent Mg(3), two equivalent Mg(4), two equivalent W(1), and two equivalent Co(1) atoms. In the fourth Mg site, Mg(4) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to four equivalent Mg(3) and two equivalent W(1) atoms. W(1) is bonded to two equivalent Mg(4), four equivalent Mg(1), four equivalent Mg(3), and two equivalent Co(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and corner-sharing WMg10Co2 cuboctahedra. Co(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(1), two equivalent Mg(2), four equivalent Mg(3), and two equivalent W(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
