SrCrO2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2/m space group. Sr(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to two equivalent O(2), two equivalent O(3), and four equivalent O(1) atoms. Cr(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one O(2), one O(3), and two equivalent O(1) atoms. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Sr(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing OSr4Cr2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 1-66°. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded to four equivalent Sr(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing OSr4Cr2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 1-66°. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded to four equivalent Sr(1) and two equivalent Cr(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing OSr4Cr2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 1-66°.
