CrP4 is Sylvanite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Cr(1) is bonded to two equivalent P(1) and four equivalent P(2) atoms to form edge-sharing CrP6 octahedra. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Cr(1), one P(2), and two equivalent P(1) atoms. In the second P site, P(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cr(1), one P(1), and one P(2) atom.
CrP4 is Sylvanite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Cr(1) is bonded to two equivalent P(1) and four equivalent P(2) atoms to form edge-sharing CrP6 octahedra. Both Cr(1)-P(1) bond lengths are 2.31 Å. There are two shorter (2.27 Å) and two longer (2.37 Å) Cr(1)-P(2) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Cr(1), one P(2), and two equivalent P(1) atoms. The P(1)-P(2) bond length is 2.23 Å. Both P(1)-P(1) bond lengths are 2.20 Å. In the second P site, P(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cr(1), one P(1), and one P(2) atom. The P(2)-P(2) bond length is 2.20 Å.
