YPd2Sn is Cyanogen Chloride-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two YPd2Sn clusters. Y(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Pd(1) and one Sn(1) atom. The Y(1)-Pd(1) bond length is 0.43 Å. The Y(1)-Sn(1) bond length is 0.17 Å. There are two inequivalent Pd sites. In the first Pd site, Pd(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Y(1) atom. In the second Pd site, Pd(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sn(1) atom. The Pd(2)-Sn(1) bond length is 0.59 Å. Sn(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Y(1) and one Pd(2) atom.
