CrCo3(PO4)4 crystallizes in the monoclinic Pm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Cr6+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent CoO6 octahedra, corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–49°. There are a spread of Cr–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.07 Å. There are three inequivalent Co2+ sites. In the first Co2+ site, Co2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CoO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent CoO6 octahedra, corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 50°. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.22 Å. In the second Co2+ site, Co2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent CrO6 octahedra, corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–49°. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–2.11 Å. In the third Co2+ site, Co2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CoO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent CoO6 octahedra, corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 50°. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.24 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 a cornercorner with one CrO6 octahedra, corners with three CoO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one CoO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–54°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.59 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one CrO6 octahedra, corners with three CoO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one CrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 46–58°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.58 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four CoO6 octahedra and an edgeedge with one CoO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 40–55°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.58 Å. In the fourth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent CrO6 octahedra, corners with two CoO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one CoO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 44–56°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.58 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cr6+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Co2+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Cr6+, one Co2+, and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Co2+ and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cr6+ and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one P5+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cr6+, one Co2+, and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one P5+ atom.
