Ca2Al2Al(SiO4)(Si2O7)O(OH) crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.32–2.84 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.26–2.93 Å. There are two inequivalent Al3+ sites. In the first Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form AlO6 octahedra that share corners with five SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.79–2.12 Å. In the second Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form AlO6 octahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with three AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.85–2.00 Å. There are three inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with six AlO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 51–53°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.64–1.68 Å. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three AlO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 26–55°. There is one shorter (1.61 Å) and three longer (1.64 Å) Si–O bond length. In the third Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four AlO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 50–59°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.59–1.67 Å. H1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O2- atom. The H–O bond length is 0.99 Å. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Ca2+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Al3+ and one H1+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Ca2+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca2+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Al3+ and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Al3+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Ca2+ and one Si4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, two Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, two equivalent Al3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, two equivalent Al3+, and one Si4+ atom.
