The compound described by LiPdSi3 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4mm space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pd(1), one Si(2), and four equivalent Si(1) atoms. Pd(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Li(1) and four equivalent Si(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li(1), two equivalent Si(2), and four equivalent Si(1) atoms. In the second Si site, Si(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one Li(1), four equivalent Pd(1), and four equivalent Si(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
