Single-crystal structures are reported for Sc(3)Mg(0.18(1))Zn(17.73(3)), the 1/1 approximant crystal (AC), and Sc(11.18(9))Mg(2.5(1))Zn(73.6(2)), the 2/1 AC, in the corresponding icosahedral quasicrystal (i-QC) system. The 1/1 AC crystallizes in space group Im, a = 13.863(2) A, Z = 8, and the 2/1 AC, in Pa, a = 22.412 (2) A, Z = 8. The latter, which is valuable in pointing the way to the QC structure, is the best ordered and refined 2/1 example to date. The fundamental building blocks in both ACs are triacontahedral clusters centered by smaller multiply endohedral Tsai-type arrays; the former are condensed through body-centered-cubic packing in the 1/1 and primitive cubic packing in the 2/1 AC. Novel prolate rhombohedra centered by Sc-Sc dimers are also generated between triacontahedra in the 2/1 AC.
