The compound described by GdPdCu4 crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. Gd(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Pd(1), four equivalent Cu(2), and nine equivalent Cu(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded to three equivalent Gd(1), three equivalent Cu(2), and six equivalent Cu(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing PdGd3Cu9 cuboctahedra. There are two inequivalent Cu sites. In the first Cu site, Cu(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Gd(1), two equivalent Pd(1), three equivalent Cu(2), and four equivalent Cu(1) atoms. In the second Cu site, Cu(2) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Gd(1), three equivalent Pd(1), and nine equivalent Cu(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
