AgAsO2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. Ag(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one As(1), one O(2), and three equivalent O(1) atoms. As(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ag(1), one O(1), and two equivalent O(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Ag(1) and one As(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OAg3As tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ag(1) and two equivalent As(1) atoms.
AgAsO2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. Ag(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one As(1), one O(2), and three equivalent O(1) atoms. The Ag(1)-As(1) bond length is 2.52 Å. The Ag(1)-O(2) bond length is 2.67 Å. There are a spread of Ag(1)-O(1) bond distances ranging from 2.35-2.55 Å. As(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ag(1), one O(1), and two equivalent O(2) atoms. The As(1)-O(1) bond length is 1.74 Å. There is one shorter (1.84 Å) and one longer (1.86 Å) As(1)-O(2) bond length. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Ag(1) and one As(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OAg3As tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ag(1) and two equivalent As(1) atoms.
