Materials Data on ZrPd4 by Materials Project
ZrPd4 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Zr is bonded to six equivalent Pd atoms to form distorted ZrPd6 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent PdPd12 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent ZrPd6 cuboctahedra, and edges with six equivalent PdPd12 cuboctahedra. All Zr–Pd bond lengths are 2.86 Å. There are two inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd is bonded to three equivalent Zr and three equivalent Pd atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing PdZr3Pd3 cuboctahedra. All Pd–Pd bond lengths are 2.84 Å. In the second Pd site, Pd is bonded to twelve Pd atoms to form PdPd12 cuboctahedra that share corners with three equivalent ZrPd6 cuboctahedra, corners with fifteen PdZr3Pd3 cuboctahedra, edges with three equivalent ZrPd6 cuboctahedra, edges with twenty-one PdZr3Pd3 cuboctahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent PdPd12 cuboctahedra. There are three shorter (2.80 Å) and six longer (2.91 Å) Pd–Pd bond lengths.
