Mg Sc Ir
MgScIr crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. Mg(1) is bonded to one Sc(1) and three equivalent Ir(1) atoms to form MgScIr3 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Sc(1)MgIr3 tetrahedra, corners with six equivalent Mg(1)ScIr3 tetrahedra, and edges with three equivalent Sc(1)MgIr3 tetrahedra. The Mg(1)-Sc(1) bond length is 1.63 Å. All Mg(1)-Ir(1) bond lengths are 2.76 Å. Sc(1) is bonded to one Mg(1) and three equivalent Ir(1) atoms to form ScMgIr3 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Mg(1)ScIr3 tetrahedra, corners with six equivalent Sc(1)MgIr3 tetrahedra, and edges with three equivalent Mg(1)ScIr3 tetrahedra. All Sc(1)-Ir(1) bond lengths are 2.76 Å. Ir(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Mg(1) and three equivalent Sc(1) atoms.
