CaCeFe2AlSi3O13 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.54 Å. Ce3+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ce–O bond distances ranging from 2.13–2.40 Å. There are two inequivalent Fe3+ sites. In the first Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with five SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent FeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.38 Å. In the second Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form FeO6 octahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with four FeO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.10 Å. Al3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form AlO6 octahedra that share corners with four SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent AlO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Al–O bond distances ranging from 1.89–1.98 Å. There are three inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four FeO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 55–56°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.63–1.67 Å. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent AlO6 octahedra and corners with four FeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–56°. There is one shorter (1.65 Å) and three longer (1.66 Å) Si–O bond length. In the third Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one FeO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent AlO6 octahedra, and a cornercorner with one SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–55°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.61–1.67 Å. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Ce3+ and two equivalent Al3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Ca2+, two equivalent Fe3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Ce3+, one Fe3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two Si4+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, two Fe3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Al3+ and one Si4+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Fe3+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one Ce3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Fe3+ and one Si4+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one Al3+, and one Si4+ atom.
