Bi3P crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Bi(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Bi(1) and two equivalent P(1) atoms. P(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
Bi3P crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Bi(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Bi(1) and two equivalent P(1) atoms. There are two shorter (3.24 Å) and four longer (3.39 Å) Bi(1)-Bi(1) bond lengths. Both Bi(1)-P(1) bond lengths are 3.21 Å. P(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
