LuPdP crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Lu(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd(1) and five equivalent P(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded to six equivalent Lu(1), two equivalent Pd(1), and four equivalent P(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing PdLu6P4Pd2 cuboctahedra. P(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Lu(1) and four equivalent Pd(1) atoms.
