LiCd2Si is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one LiCd2Si cluster. Li(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Cd(2) and one Si(1) atom. The Li(1)-Cd(2) bond length is 0.50 Å. The Li(1)-Si(1) bond length is 0.50 Å. There are two inequivalent Cd sites. In the first Cd site, Cd(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Cd(2) and one Si(1) atom. The Cd(1)-Cd(2) bond length is 1.06 Å. The Cd(1)-Si(1) bond length is 1.06 Å. In the second Cd site, Cd(2) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li(1), one Cd(1), and one Si(1) atom. The Cd(2)-Si(1) bond length is 0.55 Å. Si(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li(1), one Cd(1), and one Cd(2) atom.
