Ca(AgO2)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Ca(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), two equivalent O(3), and two equivalent O(4) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ag sites. In the first Ag site, Ag(1) is bonded to one O(4), two equivalent O(2), and three equivalent O(3) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing AgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 49-63°. In the second Ag site, Ag(2) is bonded to one O(2), two equivalent O(4), and three equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing AgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 49-63°. There are four inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Ca(1) and three equivalent Ag(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OCa2Ag3 trigonal bipyramids. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded to two equivalent Ca(1), one Ag(2), and two equivalent Ag(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OCa2Ag3 trigonal bipyramids. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded to two equivalent Ca(1) and three equivalent Ag(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OCa2Ag3 square pyramids. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ca(1), one Ag(1), and two equivalent Ag(2) atoms.
