The crystal structure described by Dy3Pd2Ga9 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. There are two inequivalent Dy sites. In the first Dy site, Dy(1) is bonded to four equivalent Ga(1) and eight equivalent Ga(2) atoms to form DyGa12 cuboctahedra that share edges with two equivalent Ga(3)Dy4Ga4Pd4 cuboctahedra and faces with two equivalent Dy(1)Ga12 cuboctahedra. In the second Dy site, Dy(2) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Pd(1), two equivalent Ga(3), four equivalent Ga(2), and six equivalent Ga(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Dy(2), two equivalent Ga(2), two equivalent Ga(3), and four equivalent Ga(1) atoms. There are three inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to one Dy(1), three equivalent Dy(2), two equivalent Pd(1), one Ga(3), and three equivalent Ga(2) atoms. In the second Ga site, Ga(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Dy(1), two equivalent Dy(2), one Pd(1), one Ga(2), and three equivalent Ga(1) atoms. In the third Ga site, Ga(3) is bonded to four equivalent Dy(2), four equivalent Pd(1), and four equivalent Ga(1) atoms to form distorted GaDy4Ga4Pd4 cuboctahedra that share edges with two equivalent Dy(1)Ga12 cuboctahedra and faces with two equivalent Ga(3)Dy4Ga4Pd4 cuboctahedra. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
