Pd3Te is Protactinium-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. There are two inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Pd(1), four equivalent Pd(2), and four equivalent Te(1) atoms. In the second Pd site, Pd(2) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to eight equivalent Pd(1) and two equivalent Te(1) atoms. Te(1) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to two equivalent Pd(2) and eight equivalent Pd(1) atoms.

In the first Pd site, Pd(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Pd(1), four equivalent Pd(2), and four equivalent Te(1) atoms. There is one shorter (2.83 Å) and one longer (2.87 Å) Pd(1)-Pd(1) bond length. All Pd(1)-Pd(2) bond lengths are 2.86 Å. All Pd(1)-Te(1) bond lengths are 2.87 Å. In the second Pd site, Pd(2) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to eight equivalent Pd(1) and two equivalent Te(1) atoms. Both Pd(2)-Te(1) bond lengths are 2.85 Å. Te(1) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to two equivalent Pd(2) and eight equivalent Pd(1) atoms.
