NbVO5 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/n space group. Nb(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms. V(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Nb(1) and one V(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Nb(1) atoms.
NbVO5 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/n space group. Nb(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms. There is one shorter (1.78 Å) and one longer (2.52 Å) Nb(1)-O(2) bond length. All Nb(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 2.02 Å. V(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. All V(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.74 Å. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Nb(1) and one V(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Nb(1) atoms.
