Y(PO3)3 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Y3+ sites. In the first Y3+ site, Y3+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form YO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. All Y–O bond lengths are 2.24 Å. In the second Y3+ site, Y3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form YO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Y–O bond distances ranging from 2.21–2.30 Å. In the third Y3+ site, Y3+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form YO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. All Y–O bond lengths are 2.29 Å. There are four inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two YO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–20°. There is two shorter (1.50 Å) and two longer (1.60 Å) P–O bond length. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent YO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 8–29°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.50–1.61 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent YO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 27–44°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.50–1.62 Å. In the fourth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two YO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 32–33°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.50–1.61 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Y3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Y3+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Y3+ and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Y3+ and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Y3+ and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Y3+ and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Y3+ and one P5+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Y3+ and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms.
