The material described by Ce3Pt2 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. There are three inequivalent Ce sites. In the first Ce site, Ce(1) is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six equivalent Pt(1) atoms. In the second Ce site, Ce(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt(1) atoms. In the third Ce site, Ce(3) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Pt(1) atoms. Pt(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one Ce(1), two equivalent Ce(2), five equivalent Ce(3), and one Pt(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
