LiPdH crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. Li(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Pd(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded to two equivalent Li(1) and four equivalent H(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing PdLi2H4 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. H(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Pd(1) atoms.
LiPdH crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. Li(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Pd(1) atoms. Both Li(1)-Pd(1) bond lengths are 2.42 Å. Pd(1) is bonded to two equivalent Li(1) and four equivalent H(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing PdLi2H4 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted. All Pd(1)-H(1) bond lengths are 1.96 Å. H(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Pd(1) atoms.
