YbPt2B crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_222 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Yb3+ is bonded to eight equivalent Pt and four equivalent B3- atoms to form a mixture of edge, face, and corner-sharing YbB4Pt8 cuboctahedra. There are four shorter (3.02 Å) and four longer (3.07 Å) Yb–Pt bond lengths. All Yb–B bond lengths are 3.01 Å. Pt is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to four equivalent Yb3+ and two equivalent B3- atoms. Both Pt–B bond lengths are 2.10 Å. B3- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Yb3+ and four equivalent Pt atoms.
