The crystal structure described by PdAu2(NCl2)4 is Indium structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one PdAu2(NCl2)4 cluster. Pd(1) is bonded in an octahedral geometry to two equivalent N(1), two equivalent N(2), and two equivalent Cl(1) atoms. Au(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Cl(1), one Cl(2), one Cl(3), and one Cl(4) atom. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Pd(1) atom. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Pd(1) atom. There are four inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Pd(1) and one Au(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Au(1) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Au(1) atom. In the fourth Cl site, Cl(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Au(1) atom. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
