The structure described by Y2Ru3Ni is Cubic Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. Y(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to nine equivalent Ru(1) and three equivalent Ni(1) atoms. Ru(1) is bonded to six equivalent Y(1), four equivalent Ru(1), and two equivalent Ni(1) atoms to form RuY6Ni2Ru4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent Ni(1)Y6Ru6 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen equivalent Ru(1)Y6Ni2Ru4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent Ru(1)Y6Ni2Ru4 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Ni(1)Y6Ru6 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Ru(1)Y6Ni2Ru4 cuboctahedra. Ni(1) is bonded to six equivalent Y(1) and six equivalent Ru(1) atoms to form NiY6Ru6 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent Ni(1)Y6Ru6 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve equivalent Ru(1)Y6Ni2Ru4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent Ni(1)Y6Ru6 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen equivalent Ru(1)Y6Ni2Ru4 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
