CdAsP crystallizes in the orthorhombic I2_12_12_1 space group. Cd(1) is bonded to two equivalent As(1) and two equivalent P(1) atoms to form distorted CdAs2P2 trigonal pyramids that share corners with four equivalent P(1)Cd2As2 tetrahedra and corners with four equivalent Cd(1)As2P2 trigonal pyramids. As(1) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Cd(1) and two equivalent P(1) atoms. P(1) is bonded to two equivalent Cd(1) and two equivalent As(1) atoms to form distorted PCd2As2 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent P(1)Cd2As2 tetrahedra and corners with four equivalent Cd(1)As2P2 trigonal pyramids.
