The compound described by Yb2Pd2Sn crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mbm space group. Yb(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd(1) and four equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Yb(1), one Pd(1), and two equivalent Sn(1) atoms. Sn(1) is bonded to eight equivalent Yb(1) and four equivalent Pd(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and corner-sharing SnYb8Pd4 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
