Abstract The crystal structure of the compound CeNi5Sn has been studied by time-of-flight neutron diffraction at room temperature. The hexagonal structure of this compound was confirmed and the site occupancy of the Ni and Sn compounds was studied in more detail. The neutron diffraction data show that only the 2b and 2c site are exclusively occupied by Ni atoms whereas Ni shares the other non-rare earth sites with Sn.
