The material described by Gd3(Pd10P3)2 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. There are two inequivalent Gd sites. In the first Gd site, Gd(1) is bonded to four equivalent Pd(1) and twelve equivalent Pd(2) atoms to form distorted GdPd16 tetrahedra that share edges with six equivalent Gd(1)Pd16 tetrahedra and faces with four equivalent Gd(2)P6Pd12 cuboctahedra. In the second Gd site, Gd(2) is bonded to twelve equivalent Pd(2) and six equivalent P(1) atoms to form distorted face-sharing GdP6Pd12 cuboctahedra. There are two inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Gd(1), six equivalent Pd(2), and three equivalent P(1) atoms. In the second Pd site, Pd(2) is bonded in a 14-coordinate geometry to one Gd(2), two equivalent Gd(1), four equivalent Pd(1), five equivalent Pd(2), and two equivalent P(1) atoms. P(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one Gd(2), four equivalent Pd(1), and four equivalent Pd(2) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
