The structure described by Cu2PO5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnnm space group. There are two inequivalent Cu sites. In the first Cu site, Cu(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(4) atoms to form distorted CuO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent P(1)O4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent Cu(2)O5 trigonal bipyramids, and edges with two equivalent Cu(1)O6 octahedra. In the second Cu site, Cu(2) is bonded to one O(1), two equivalent O(3), and two equivalent O(4) atoms to form CuO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with four equivalent Cu(1)O6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent P(1)O4 tetrahedra, and  an edgeedge with one Cu(2)O5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 54-65°. P(1) is bonded to one O(2), one O(3), and two equivalent O(4) atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Cu(1)O6 octahedra and corners with four equivalent Cu(2)O5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 53-67°. There are four inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Cu(2) and two equivalent Cu(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Cu(1) and one P(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Cu(2) and one P(1) atom. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Cu(1), one Cu(2), and one P(1) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
