VCrP2(O4F)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. V(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(4), and two equivalent F(1) atoms to form VO4F2 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent Cr(1)O4F2 octahedra and corners with four equivalent P(1)O4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 39°. Cr(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(2), two equivalent O(3), and two equivalent F(1) atoms to form CrO4F2 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent V(1)O4F2 octahedra and corners with four equivalent P(1)O4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 39°. P(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), one O(3), and one O(4) atom to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent V(1)O4F2 octahedra and corners with two equivalent Cr(1)O4F2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 25-45°. There are four inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one V(1) and one P(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Cr(1) and one P(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cr(1) and one P(1) atom.
