NaMoO2 is Caswellsilverite structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. Na(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form NaO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mo(1)O6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent Na(1)O6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent Mo(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 10°. Mo(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form MoO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Na(1)O6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent Na(1)O6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent Mo(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 10°. O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Na(1) and three equivalent Mo(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing ONa3Mo3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted.
