BiOF is Baddeleyite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. Bi(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) and three equivalent F(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing BiO4F3 pentagonal bipyramids. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Bi(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OBi4 tetrahedra. F(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Bi(1) atoms.

Bi(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) and three equivalent F(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing BiO4F3 pentagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Bi(1)-O(1) bond distances ranging from 2.33-2.47 Å. There is one shorter (2.46 Å) and two longer (2.49 Å) Bi(1)-F(1) bond lengths. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Bi(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OBi4 tetrahedra. F(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
