Cr5Cu2(PO4)6 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Cr3+ sites. In the first Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one CrO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one CuO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Cr–O bond distances ranging from 1.94–2.12 Å. In the second Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one CrO6 octahedra, corners with six PO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one CrO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one CuO5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 62°. There are a spread of Cr–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.11 Å. In the third Cr3+ site, Cr3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent CrO6 octahedra, corners with six PO4 tetrahedra, and corners with two equivalent CuO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 62°. There are a spread of Cr–O bond distances ranging from 2.00–2.16 Å. Cu+1.50+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted CuO5 trigonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one CrO6 octahedra, corners with five PO4 tetrahedra, and edges with two CrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 59°. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 2.05–2.26 Å. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four CrO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent CuO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 26–57°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.59 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with six CrO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one CuO5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 29–54°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.58 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with five CrO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent CuO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 34–60°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.50–1.60 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Cr3+, one Cu+1.50+, and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cr3+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cr3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two Cr3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Cr3+, one Cu+1.50+, and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cr3+ and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cr3+ and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cr3+ and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Cr3+, one Cu+1.50+, and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cr3+, one Cu+1.50+, and one P5+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cr3+, one Cu+1.50+, and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Cr3+ and one P5+ atom.
