Lu3(CuSi)4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Lu3+ sites. In the first Lu3+ site, Lu3+ is bonded to six Si4- atoms to form edge-sharing LuSi6 octahedra. There are four shorter (2.87 Å) and two longer (2.92 Å) Lu–Si bond lengths. In the second Lu3+ site, Lu3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six Si4- atoms. All Lu–Si bond lengths are 2.92 Å. Cu+1.75+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Cu+1.75+ and four Si4- atoms. The Cu–Cu bond length is 2.47 Å. There are a spread of Cu–Si bond distances ranging from 2.42–2.51 Å. There are two inequivalent Si4- sites. In the first Si4- site, Si4- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three Lu3+ and six equivalent Cu+1.75+ atoms. In the second Si4- site, Si4- is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Lu3+, two equivalent Cu+1.75+, and one Si4- atom. The Si–Si bond length is 2.41 Å.
