title: Materials Data on CaCu2(P2O7)2 by Materials Project

description: CaCu2(P2O7)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ca2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.28–3.05 Å. There are two inequivalent Cu3+ sites. In the first Cu3+ site, Cu3+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted CuO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with five PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.85–2.38 Å. In the second Cu3+ site, Cu3+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted CuO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with five PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–2.43 Å. There are four inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra and corners with three equivalent CuO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.49–1.62 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra and corners with three equivalent CuO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.63 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra and corners with two CuO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.50–1.62 Å. In the fourth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra and corners with two CuO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.49–1.60 Å. There are fourteen inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Cu3+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Ca2+, one Cu3+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ca2+, one Cu3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ca2+ and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one Cu3+, and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cu3+ and one P5+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one Cu3+, and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu3+ and one P5+ atom. In the thirteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ca2+, one Cu3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ca2+, one Cu3+, and one P5+ atom.
