EuSm3 is Magnesium-derived structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Eu is bonded to twelve Sm atoms to form EuSm12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent EuSm12 cuboctahedra, corners with twelve SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra, edges with eighteen SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra, faces with eight equivalent EuSm12 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra. There are six shorter (3.69 Å) and six longer (3.70 Å) Eu–Sm bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Sm sites. In the first Sm site, Sm is bonded to four equivalent Eu and eight Sm atoms to form SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent EuSm12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent EuSm12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent EuSm12 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Sm–Sm bond distances ranging from 3.64–3.77 Å. In the second Sm site, Sm is bonded to four equivalent Eu and eight equivalent Sm atoms to form SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent EuSm12 cuboctahedra, corners with fourteen SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent EuSm12 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent EuSm12 cuboctahedra, and faces with sixteen SmSm8Eu4 cuboctahedra.
