The material described by CeIr2P2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/nmm space group. Ce(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ir(1), four equivalent Ir(2), four equivalent P(1), and four equivalent P(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ir sites. In the first Ir site, Ir(1) is bonded to four equivalent Ce(1) and four equivalent P(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and edge-sharing IrCe4P4 cuboctahedra. In the second Ir site, Ir(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ce(1), one P(2), and four equivalent P(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ce(1) and four equivalent Ir(2) atoms. In the second P site, P(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ce(1), one Ir(2), and four equivalent Ir(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
