LiPdAlF6 is beta Vanadium nitride-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-31c space group. Li(1) is bonded to six equivalent F(1) atoms to form LiF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Pd(1)F6 octahedra and edges with three equivalent Al(1)F6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 58°. Pd(1) is bonded to six equivalent F(1) atoms to form PdF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Li(1)F6 octahedra and corners with six equivalent Al(1)F6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 47-58°. Al(1) is bonded to six equivalent F(1) atoms to form AlF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Pd(1)F6 octahedra and edges with three equivalent Li(1)F6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 47°. F(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li(1), one Pd(1), and one Al(1) atom.
