The Materials Project

CuCO3 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cu2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form edge-sharing CuO5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.22 Å. C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.24 Å) and two longer (1.33 Å) C–O bond length. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to two equivalent Cu2+ and one C4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cu2+ and one C4+ atom.
