Materials Data on NaPPdS4 by Materials Project
NaPdPS4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Na1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent S2- atoms. All Na–S bond lengths are 3.15 Å. Pd2+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent S2- atoms. All Pd–S bond lengths are 2.36 Å. P5+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent S2- atoms. All P–S bond lengths are 2.06 Å. S2- is bonded to two equivalent Na1+, one Pd2+, and one P5+ atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing SNa2PPd trigonal pyramids.
