description: In2Cu2O5 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Cu2+ sites. In the first Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.67 Å. In the second Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted CuO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with three InO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent CuO5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with four equivalent InO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one CuO5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 41–63°. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.62 Å.
