Materials Data on K(SiPd)4 by Materials Project

K(PdSi)4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Pd and four equivalent Si atoms. There are four shorter (3.24 Å) and four longer (3.47 Å) K–Pd bond lengths. All K–Si bond lengths are 3.51 Å. Pd is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K and five equivalent Si atoms. There are a spread of Pd–Si bond distances ranging from 2.44–2.54 Å. Si is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one K and five equivalent Pd atoms.
