The crystal structure of a new ternary aluminide of refined composition Sc6Cu24.1(2)Al11.9(2) was solved by direct methods from X-ray powder diffraction data. It belongs to the cubic space group Im-3, Pearson symbol cI176-8, a = 13.5337(5) Å. The structure of Sc6Cu24.1Al11.9 may be described as a packing of 16-vertex coordination polyhedra of the Sc atoms, which form icosahedral clusters around the origin and the center of the body-centered unit cell. The voids at the centers of the clusters are filled by Cu4 tetrahedra, disordered between two possible orientations. The structure is closely related to the structure types Ru3Be17 and Ce6Au27.6Sn6.8.
