VCo2Pd crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one VCo2Pd cluster. V(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Co(2) and one Pd(1) atom. The V(1)-Co(2) bond length is 1.65 Å. The V(1)-Pd(1) bond length is 1.74 Å. There are two inequivalent Co sites. In the first Co site, Co(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Pd(1) atom. The Co(1)-Pd(1) bond length is 1.65 Å. In the second Co site, Co(2) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one V(1) atom. Pd(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one V(1) and one Co(1) atom.
