The crystal structure described by Co2ZnO5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Co(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(3), and three equivalent O(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing CoO5 trigonal bipyramids. Zn(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Co(1) and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms to form corner-sharing OZn2Co2 tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Co(1) and one Zn(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co(1) and one Zn(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
