The crystal structure described by VPd2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. V(1) is bonded to two equivalent V(1) and ten equivalent Pd(1) atoms to form distorted VV2Pd10 cuboctahedra that share corners with two equivalent V(1)V2Pd10 cuboctahedra, corners with ten equivalent Pd(1)V5Pd7 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent V(1)V2Pd10 cuboctahedra, edges with twelve equivalent Pd(1)V5Pd7 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent V(1)V2Pd10 cuboctahedra, and faces with fourteen equivalent Pd(1)V5Pd7 cuboctahedra. Pd(1) is bonded to five equivalent V(1) and seven equivalent Pd(1) atoms to form distorted PdV5Pd7 cuboctahedra that share corners with five equivalent V(1)V2Pd10 cuboctahedra, corners with seven equivalent Pd(1)V5Pd7 cuboctahedra, edges with six equivalent V(1)V2Pd10 cuboctahedra, edges with eighteen equivalent Pd(1)V5Pd7 cuboctahedra, faces with seven equivalent V(1)V2Pd10 cuboctahedra, and faces with eleven equivalent Pd(1)V5Pd7 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
