CuCO3 crystallizes in the monoclinic Pm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Cu2+ sites. In the first Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted corner-sharing CuO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.09 Å. In the second Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted corner-sharing CuO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.08 Å. In the third Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted corner-sharing CuO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.08 Å. There are three inequivalent C4+ sites. In the first C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.30 Å) and one longer (1.31 Å) C–O bond length. In the second C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. All C–O bond lengths are 1.29 Å. In the third C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. All C–O bond lengths are 1.29 Å. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu2+ and one C4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Cu2+ and one C4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Cu2+ and one C4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu2+ and one C4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Cu2+ and one C4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu2+ and one C4+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Cu2+ and one C4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Cu2+ and one C4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Cu2+ and one C4+ atom.
