The crystal structure described by Sm2BaCuO5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Ba(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O(1), four equivalent O(2), and four equivalent O(3) atoms. There are two inequivalent Sm sites. In the first Sm site, Sm(1) is bonded to one O(1), two equivalent O(2), and four equivalent O(3) atoms to form distorted SmO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with five equivalent Cu(1)O5 square pyramids, edges with two equivalent Sm(1)O7 pentagonal bipyramids, and  an edgeedge with one Cu(1)O5 square pyramid. In the second Sm site, Sm(2) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one O(1), two equivalent O(3), and four equivalent O(2) atoms. Cu(1) is bonded to one O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms to form distorted CuO5 square pyramids that share corners with five equivalent Sm(1)O7 pentagonal bipyramids and  an edgeedge with one Sm(1)O7 pentagonal bipyramid. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Ba(1), one Sm(1), one Sm(2), and one Cu(1) atom to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OBa3Sm2Cu octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 4°. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba(1), one Sm(1), two equivalent Sm(2), and one Cu(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba(1), one Sm(2), two equivalent Sm(1), and one Cu(1) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
