Zr4Ni(PO4)6 crystallizes in the monoclinic Pc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Zr4+ sites. In the first Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ZrO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one NiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.25 Å. In the second Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ZrO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one NiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.25 Å. In the third Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ZrO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.05–2.13 Å. In the fourth Zr4+ site, Zr4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ZrO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.09–2.13 Å. Ni2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted NiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra and edges with two ZrO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ni–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.03 Å. There are six inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four ZrO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one NiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 12–42°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.58 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four ZrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 11–31°. There is two shorter (1.54 Å) and two longer (1.55 Å) P–O bond length. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four ZrO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one NiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 19–37°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.59 Å. In the fourth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four ZrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 19–30°. There is two shorter (1.53 Å) and two longer (1.55 Å) P–O bond length. In the fifth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four ZrO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one NiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 7–42°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.60 Å. In the sixth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four ZrO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one NiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 16–40°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.59 Å. There are twenty-four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Zr4+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Zr4+ and one P5+ atom.
