The structure described by NaCd3 is Uranium Silicide-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Na(1) is bonded to four equivalent Cd(2) and eight equivalent Cd(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing NaCd12 cuboctahedra. There are two inequivalent Cd sites. In the first Cd site, Cd(1) is bonded to four equivalent Na(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, corner, and edge-sharing CdNa4 cuboctahedra. In the second Cd site, Cd(2) is bonded to four equivalent Na(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, corner, and edge-sharing CdNa4 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
