Eu(BO2)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Eu2+ is bonded to eight O2- atoms to form distorted edge-sharing EuO8 hexagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Eu–O bond distances ranging from 2.53–2.77 Å. B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.34–1.42 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Eu2+ and two equivalent B3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three equivalent Eu2+ and one B3+ atom.
