Cr2MnNi3(PO4)6 crystallizes in the trigonal R3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cr5+ sites. In the first Cr5+ site, Cr5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CrO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra, a faceface with one MnO6 octahedra, and a faceface with one NiO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (2.07 Å) and three longer (2.09 Å) Cr–O bond lengths. In the second Cr5+ site, Cr5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CrO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and faces with two NiO6 octahedra. All Cr–O bond lengths are 2.06 Å. Mn2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one CrO6 octahedra. There is three shorter (1.88 Å) and three longer (2.01 Å) Mn–O bond length. There are three inequivalent Ni2+ sites. In the first Ni2+ site, Ni2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NiO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one CrO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (1.95 Å) and three longer (2.08 Å) Ni–O bond lengths. In the second Ni2+ site, Ni2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NiO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one CrO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (1.99 Å) and three longer (2.10 Å) Ni–O bond lengths. In the third Ni2+ site, Ni2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NiO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one CrO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (1.96 Å) and three longer (2.07 Å) Ni–O bond lengths. There are two 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 MnO6 octahedra, corners with two CrO6 octahedra, and corners with three NiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 31–54°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.61 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one MnO6 octahedra, corners with two CrO6 octahedra, and corners with three NiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 27–55°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.57 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ni2+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cr5+, one Ni2+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mn2+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cr5+, one Ni2+, and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ni2+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cr5+, one Mn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cr5+, one Ni2+, and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ni2+ and one P5+ atom.
