Tm2Pd2Cd crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mbm space group. Tm(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd(1) and four equivalent Cd(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Tm(1) and two equivalent Cd(1) atoms. Cd(1) is bonded to eight equivalent Tm(1) and four equivalent Pd(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and face-sharing CdTm8Pd4 cuboctahedra.
Tm2Pd2Cd crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mbm space group. Tm(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd(1) and four equivalent Cd(1) atoms. There are two shorter (2.81 Å) and four longer (2.93 Å) Tm(1)-Pd(1) bond lengths. All Tm(1)-Cd(1) bond lengths are 3.37 Å. Pd(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Tm(1) and two equivalent Cd(1) atoms. Both Pd(1)-Cd(1) bond lengths are 3.01 Å. Cd(1) is bonded to eight equivalent Tm(1) and four equivalent Pd(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and face-sharing CdTm8Pd4 cuboctahedra.
