Eu(ZnP)2 crystallizes in the trigonal P-3m1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Eu2+ is bonded to six equivalent P3- atoms to form EuP6 octahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent ZnP4 tetrahedra, edges with six equivalent EuP6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent ZnP4 tetrahedra. All Eu–P bond lengths are 3.00 Å. Zn2+ is bonded to four equivalent P3- atoms to form ZnP4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent EuP6 octahedra, corners with six equivalent ZnP4 tetrahedra, edges with three equivalent EuP6 octahedra, and edges with three equivalent ZnP4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 22–52°. There are three shorter (2.46 Å) and one longer (2.54 Å) Zn–P bond lengths. P3- is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Eu2+ and four equivalent Zn2+ atoms.
