BaPrCu2O5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Ba2+ sites. In the first Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.73–2.98 Å. In the second Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form BaO12 cuboctahedra that share faces with two equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra and faces with eight CuO5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.85–3.06 Å. In the third Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.78–2.92 Å. There are three inequivalent Pr4+ sites. In the first Pr4+ site, Pr4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pr–O bond distances ranging from 2.48–2.55 Å. In the second Pr4+ site, Pr4+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pr–O bond distances ranging from 2.48–2.53 Å. In the third Pr4+ site, Pr4+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Pr–O bond distances ranging from 2.54–2.70 Å. There are three inequivalent Cu2+ sites. In the first Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form CuO5 square pyramids that share corners with five CuO5 square pyramids and faces with two equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.16 Å. In the second Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form corner-sharing CuO5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.11 Å. In the third Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form CuO5 square pyramids that share corners with five CuO5 square pyramids and faces with two equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.89–1.97 Å. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Ba2+ and two Cu2+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OBa4Cu2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–9°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Pr4+, and two Cu2+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Pr4+, and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Pr4+, and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two Ba2+, two Pr4+, and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Pr4+, and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Pr4+ and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Ba2+, two Pr4+, and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to three Ba2+, one Pr4+, and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent Pr4+, and two equivalent Cu2+ atoms.
