The structure described by Pd3Zn5 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. There are two inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to one Zn(3), four equivalent Zn(1), and four equivalent Zn(2) atoms. In the second Pd site, Pd(2) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Zn(2) atoms. There are three inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pd(1) and four equivalent Zn(3) atoms. In the second Zn site, Zn(2) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Pd(1) and four equivalent Pd(2) atoms. In the third Zn site, Zn(3) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Pd(1) and eight equivalent Zn(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
