There are a spread of Ni–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.48–2.53 Å. The Ni–Zn bond length is 2.56 Å. In the second Ni site, Ni is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ce, three equivalent Ni, and three Zn atoms. All Ni–Zn bond lengths are 2.55 Å. In the third Ni site, Ni is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ce, three equivalent Ni, and three Zn atoms. All Ni–Zn bond lengths are 2.56 Å. There are five inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn is bonded to four Ce, four Ni, and four Zn atoms to form distorted ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra, edges with two equivalent ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra. All Zn–Zn bond lengths are 2.52 Å. In the second Zn site, Zn is bonded to four Ce, four Ni, and four Zn atoms to form distorted ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra, edges with two equivalent ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra. There are two shorter (2.55 Å) and two longer (2.56 Å) Zn–Ni bond lengths. Both Zn–Zn bond lengths are 2.52 Å. In the third Zn site, Zn is bonded to four Ce, four Ni, and four Zn atoms to form distorted ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra, edges with two equivalent ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight ZnCe4Zn4Ni4 cuboctahedra. There are two shorter (2.55 Å) and two longer (2.56 Å) Zn–Ni bond lengths. In the fourth Zn site, Zn is bonded to six equivalent Ce and six equivalent Ni atoms to form ZnCe6Ni6 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent ZnCe6Ni6 cuboctahedra, and faces with eighteen equivalent NiCe5ZnNi6 cuboctahedra.
