description: CaTiO2 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Ca2+ sites. In the first Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.55 Å. In the second Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ca–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.56 Å. In the third Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.29 Å) and one longer (2.48 Å) Ca–O bond lengths. In the fourth Ca2+ site, Ca2+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.29 Å) and one longer (2.47 Å) Ca–O bond lengths. There are four inequivalent Ti2+ sites. In the first Ti2+ site, Ti2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form TiO5 square pyramids that share corners with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra and edges with four TiO5 square pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 49°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.17 Å. In the second Ti2+ site, Ti2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent TiO5 square pyramids and edges with four TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.16 Å.

There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.16 Å. In the fourth Ti2+ site, Ti2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form TiO5 square pyramids that share corners with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra and edges with four TiO5 square pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 49°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.17 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites.
