K3Gd5(PO4)6 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.74–3.29 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.64–3.35 Å. There are three inequivalent Gd3+ sites. In the first Gd3+ site, Gd3+ is bonded to eight O2- atoms to form distorted GdO8 hexagonal bipyramids that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent GdO8 hexagonal bipyramids, and edges with two PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Gd–O bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.60 Å. In the second Gd3+ site, Gd3+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Gd–O bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.76 Å. In the third Gd3+ site, Gd3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Gd–O bond distances ranging from 2.30–2.60 Å. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent GdO8 hexagonal bipyramids and an edgeedge with one GdO8 hexagonal bipyramid. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.57 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share an edgeedge with one GdO8 hexagonal bipyramid. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.59 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent GdO8 hexagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.57 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, one Gd3+, and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two Gd3+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two Gd3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two K1+, two Gd3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two equivalent Gd3+, and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Gd3+ and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three K1+, one Gd3+, and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two Gd3+, and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two Gd3+, and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two equivalent Gd3+, and one P5+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K1+, one Gd3+, and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one K1+, two Gd3+, and one P5+ atom.
