The compound described by Mo3P crystallizes in the tetragonal I-4 space group. There are three inequivalent Mo sites. In the first Mo site, Mo(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Mo(1) and two equivalent P(1) atoms. In the second Mo site, Mo(3) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent P(1) atoms. In the third Mo site, Mo(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent P(1) atoms. P(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mo(1), two equivalent Mo(3), and four equivalent Mo(2) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
