PdP2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Pd(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent P(1) atoms. P(1) is bonded to two equivalent Pd(1) and two equivalent P(1) atoms to form corner-sharing PP2Pd2 tetrahedra.
PdP2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Pd(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent P(1) atoms. All Pd(1)-P(1) bond lengths are 2.35 Å. P(1) is bonded to two equivalent Pd(1) and two equivalent P(1) atoms to form corner-sharing PP2Pd2 tetrahedra. There is one shorter (2.21 Å) and one longer (2.22 Å) P(1)-P(1) bond length.
