CaPdIn4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Ca(1) is bonded in a 13-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Pd(1), one In(2), four equivalent In(3), and six equivalent In(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca(1), one In(2), and six equivalent In(1) atoms. There are three inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ca(1), three equivalent Pd(1), and one In(3) atom. In the second In site, In(2) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Ca(1), one Pd(1), and four equivalent In(3) atoms. In the third In site, In(3) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to four equivalent Ca(1), two equivalent In(1), and four equivalent In(2) atoms.
CaPdIn4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Ca(1) is bonded in a 13-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Pd(1), one In(2), four equivalent In(3), and six equivalent In(1) atoms. Both Ca(1)-Pd(1) bond lengths are 3.33 Å. The Ca(1)-In(2) bond length is 3.24 Å. All Ca(1)-In(3) bond lengths are 3.63 Å.
