LuPdZn crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. Lu(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to one Pd(1), four equivalent Pd(2), and six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Lu(1) and six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. In the second Pd site, Pd(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu(1) and three equivalent Zn(1) atoms. Zn(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu(1), two equivalent Pd(1), and two equivalent Pd(2) atoms.
LuPdZn crystallizes in the hexagonal P-62m space group. Lu(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to one Pd(1), four equivalent Pd(2), and six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. The Lu(1)-Pd(1) bond length is 2.86 Å. All Lu(1)-Pd(2) bond lengths are 2.88 Å. There are two shorter (3.10 Å) and four longer (3.15 Å) Lu(1)-Zn(1) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Lu(1) and six equivalent Zn(1) atoms. All Pd(1)-Zn(1) bond lengths are 2.62 Å. In the second Pd site, Pd(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu(1) and three equivalent Zn(1) atoms. All Pd(2)-Zn(1) bond lengths are 2.70 Å. Zn(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Lu(1), two equivalent Pd(1), and two equivalent Pd(2) atoms.
