The material structure described by YPdGe2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. There are two inequivalent Y sites. In the first Y site, Y(1) is bonded in a 14-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd(1), two equivalent Ge(1), and six equivalent Ge(2) atoms. In the second Y site, Y(2) is bonded in a 14-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pd(1), two equivalent Ge(2), four equivalent Ge(1), and four equivalent Ge(3) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Y(2), three equivalent Y(1), one Ge(1), one Ge(3), and three equivalent Ge(2) atoms. There are three inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Y(1), four equivalent Y(2), two equivalent Pd(1), and one Ge(1) atom. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to one Y(2), three equivalent Y(1), three equivalent Pd(1), and one Ge(2) atom. In the third Ge site, Ge(3) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Y(2), two equivalent Pd(1), and one Ge(3) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
