The structure described by Nd2PdIn8 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. Nd(1) is bonded to four equivalent In(1), four equivalent In(2), and four equivalent In(3) atoms to form NdIn12 cuboctahedra that share corners with eight equivalent Nd(1)In12 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent In(2)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent In(3)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent In(2)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent In(3)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra, and faces with five equivalent Nd(1)In12 cuboctahedra. Pd(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent In(1) atoms. There are three inequivalent In sites. In the first In site, In(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Nd(1), two equivalent Pd(1), and two equivalent In(2) atoms. In the second In site, In(2) is bonded to four equivalent Nd(1), four equivalent In(1), and four equivalent In(3) atoms to form distorted InNd4In8 cuboctahedra that share corners with eight equivalent In(2)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra, edges with four equivalent Nd(1)In12 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent In(3)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Nd(1)In12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent In(3)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra, and faces with five equivalent In(2)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra. In the third In site, In(3) is bonded to four equivalent Nd(1), four equivalent In(2), and four equivalent In(3) atoms to form distorted InNd4In8 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent In(3)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent Nd(1)In12 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent In(2)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Nd(1)In12 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent In(2)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent In(3)Nd4In8 cuboctahedra. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
