Be Be Ni Pd
Be2PdNi crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two Be2PdNi clusters. There are two inequivalent Be sites. In the first Be site, Be(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Be(2) and one Ni(1) atom. The Be(1)-Be(2) bond length is 0.18 Å. The Be(1)-Ni(1) bond length is 1.72 Å. In the second Be site, Be(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Be(1) atom. Pd(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ni(1) atom. The Pd(1)-Ni(1) bond length is 1.68 Å. Ni(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Be(1) and one Pd(1) atom.
