CuBi2O4 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/ncc space group. Cu(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. Bi(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing BiO6 pentagonal pyramids. O(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Cu(1) and three equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
CuBi2O4 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/ncc space group. Cu(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. All Cu(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.93 Å. Bi(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing BiO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Bi(1)-O(1) bond distances ranging from 2.17-2.69 Å. O(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Cu(1) and three equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
