The structure described by Y6PdBr10 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. There are three inequivalent Y sites. In the first Y site, Y(1) is bonded to one Pd(1), one Br(2), one Br(4), one Br(5), and two equivalent Br(3) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing YPdBr5 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-4°. In the second Y site, Y(2) is bonded to one Pd(1), one Br(1), one Br(3), one Br(5), and two equivalent Br(2) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing YPdBr5 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-4°. In the third Y site, Y(3) is bonded to one Pd(1), one Br(3), one Br(4), one Br(5), and two equivalent Br(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing YPdBr5 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-4°. Pd(1) is bonded in an octahedral geometry to two equivalent Y(1), two equivalent Y(2), and two equivalent Y(3) atoms. There are five inequivalent Br sites. In the first Br site, Br(1) is bonded in a T-shaped geometry to one Y(2) and two equivalent Y(3) atoms. In the second Br site, Br(2) is bonded in a T-shaped geometry to one Y(1) and two equivalent Y(2) atoms. In the third Br site, Br(3) is bonded in a see-saw-like geometry to one Y(2), one Y(3), and two equivalent Y(1) atoms. In the fourth Br site, Br(4) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Y(1) and one Y(3) atom. In the fifth Br site, Br(5) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Y(1), one Y(2), and one Y(3) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
