ErMn4(FeSn3)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Er is bonded to four equivalent Fe and eight Sn atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and face-sharing ErFe4Sn8 hexagonal bipyramids. All Er–Fe bond lengths are 3.53 Å. There are two shorter (3.02 Å) and six longer (3.15 Å) Er–Sn bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Fe and six Sn atoms. All Mn–Fe bond lengths are 2.73 Å. There are a spread of Mn–Sn bond distances ranging from 2.74–2.84 Å. In the second Mn site, Mn is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six Sn atoms. There are a spread of Mn–Sn bond distances ranging from 2.73–2.84 Å. In the third Mn site, Mn is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six Sn atoms. There are a spread of Mn–Sn bond distances ranging from 2.74–2.83 Å. Fe is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Er, two equivalent Mn, two equivalent Fe, and six Sn atoms. Both Fe–Fe bond lengths are 2.72 Å. There are a spread of Fe–Sn bond distances ranging from 2.73–2.84 Å. There are four inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Er, four Mn, and two equivalent Fe atoms. In the second Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Mn and two equivalent Fe atoms. In the third Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to one Er, two equivalent Mn, four equivalent Fe, and one Sn atom. The Sn–Sn bond length is 3.00 Å. In the fourth Sn site, Sn is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to one Er, six Mn, and one Sn atom.
