VO2 is Hydrophilite-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. V(1) is bonded to three equivalent O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing VO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 49°. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent V(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent V(1) atoms.

There is one shorter (1.95 Å) and two longer (1.98 Å) V(1)-O(1) bond lengths. There is one shorter (1.86 Å) and two longer (2.02 Å) V(1)-O(2) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent O sites.
