LuBi2O4I is alpha bismuth trifluoride-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/mmm space group. Lu(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent O(1) atoms. Bi(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent O(1) and four equivalent I(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Lu(1) and two equivalent Bi(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OLu2Bi2 tetrahedra. I(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
