Ca3Fe2Si3O12 crystallizes in the cubic Ia-3d space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.38 Å) and four longer (2.53 Å) Ca–O bond lengths. Fe3+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra. All Fe–O bond lengths are 2.05 Å. Si4+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 47°. All Si–O bond lengths are 1.66 Å. O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca2+, one Fe3+, and one Si4+ atom.
