The structure described by Mg2Pd crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. There are two inequivalent Mg sites. In the first Mg site, Mg(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pd(1) atoms. In the second Mg site, Mg(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pd(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Mg(2) and six equivalent Mg(1) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
