Er25Ni49P33 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are seven inequivalent Er sites. In the first Er site, Er is bonded to six Ni and six P atoms to form a mixture of edge and face-sharing ErNi6P6 cuboctahedra. All Er–Ni bond lengths are 2.94 Å. All Er–P bond lengths are 2.94 Å. In the second Er site, Er is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight Ni and six P atoms. There are a spread of Er–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.93–3.07 Å. There are a spread of Er–P bond distances ranging from 2.90–2.97 Å. In the third Er site, Er is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve Ni and four equivalent P atoms. There are a spread of Er–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.86–3.17 Å. All Er–P bond lengths are 3.01 Å. In the fourth Er site, Er is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight Ni and six P atoms. There are a spread of Er–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.94–3.06 Å. There are four shorter (2.92 Å) and two longer (2.94 Å) Er–P bond lengths. In the fifth Er site, Er is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to eight Ni and six P atoms. There are a spread of Er–Ni bond distances ranging from 2.95–3.07 Å.

There are two shorter (2.30 Å) and two longer (2.32 Å) Ni–P bond lengths. In the eighth Ni site, Ni is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Er, one Ni, and three P atoms. There are one shorter (2.22 Å) and two longer (2.34 Å) Ni–P bond lengths. In the ninth Ni site, Ni is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to six Er and three P atoms. There are one shorter (2.21 Å) and two longer (2.24 Å) Ni–P bond lengths. In the tenth Ni site, Ni is bonded to four Er and four P atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing NiEr4P4 tetrahedra.
