Gd3Pd7P4 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Gd sites. In the first Gd site, Gd is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to ten Pd and four P atoms. There are a spread of Gd–Pd bond distances ranging from 3.00–3.21 Å. There are two shorter (2.96 Å) and two longer (3.02 Å) Gd–P bond lengths. In the second Gd site, Gd is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to ten Pd and six P atoms. There are a spread of Gd–Pd bond distances ranging from 3.25–3.50 Å. There are two shorter (2.97 Å) and four longer (3.00 Å) Gd–P bond lengths. There are four inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to five Gd, three Pd, and four P atoms. There are one shorter (2.79 Å) and two longer (2.90 Å) Pd–Pd bond lengths. There are a spread of Pd–P bond distances ranging from 2.49–2.59 Å. In the second Pd site, Pd is bonded to four Gd, five Pd, and three P atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, corner, and face-sharing PdGd4P3Pd5 cuboctahedra. There are two shorter (2.84 Å) and two longer (2.94 Å) Pd–Pd bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.48 Å) and one longer (2.50 Å) Pd–P bond lengths. In the third Pd site, Pd is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four Gd, five Pd, and three equivalent P atoms. There are two shorter (2.88 Å) and one longer (3.10 Å) Pd–Pd bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.52 Å) and one longer (2.64 Å) Pd–P bond lengths. In the fourth Pd site, Pd is bonded to four equivalent Gd, six Pd, and two equivalent P atoms to form distorted face-sharing PdGd4P2Pd6 cuboctahedra. Both Pd–P bond lengths are 2.47 Å. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four Gd and five Pd atoms. In the second P site, P is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three Gd and six Pd atoms.
