LuOF is Baddeleyite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. Lu(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) and three equivalent F(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing LuO4F3 pentagonal bipyramids. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Lu(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OLu4 tetrahedra. F(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Lu(1) atoms.
