Lu2V2O7 crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. Lu(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to two equivalent O(1) and six equivalent O(2) atoms. V(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(2) atoms to form corner-sharing VO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 51°. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Lu(1) atoms to form OLu4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent O(1)Lu4 tetrahedra, corners with twelve equivalent O(2)Lu2V2 tetrahedra, and edges with six equivalent O(2)Lu2V2 tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded to two equivalent Lu(1) and two equivalent V(1) atoms to form distorted OLu2V2 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent O(1)Lu4 tetrahedra, corners with twelve equivalent O(2)Lu2V2 tetrahedra,  an edgeedge with one O(1)Lu4 tetrahedra, and edges with four equivalent O(2)Lu2V2 tetrahedra.
