CoP3 is Skutterudite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Im-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Co1+ is bonded to six equivalent P+0.33- atoms to form CoP6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CoP6 octahedra and corners with twelve equivalent PCo2P2 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 59°. All Co–P bond lengths are 2.22 Å. P+0.33- is bonded to two equivalent Co1+ and two equivalent P+0.33- atoms to form distorted PCo2P2 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CoP6 octahedra, corners with ten equivalent PCo2P2 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one PCo2P2 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 69–70°. There are one shorter (2.26 Å) and one longer (2.35 Å) P–P bond lengths.
