The crystal structure described by Sm2Mo2O7 crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. Sm(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to two equivalent O(2) and six equivalent O(1) atoms. Mo(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form corner-sharing MoO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 51°. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Sm(1) and two equivalent Mo(1) atoms to form distorted OSm2Mo2 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent O(2)Sm4 tetrahedra, corners with twelve equivalent O(1)Sm2Mo2 tetrahedra,  an edgeedge with one O(2)Sm4 tetrahedra, and edges with four equivalent O(1)Sm2Mo2 tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded to four equivalent Sm(1) atoms to form OSm4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent O(2)Sm4 tetrahedra, corners with twelve equivalent O(1)Sm2Mo2 tetrahedra, and edges with six equivalent O(1)Sm2Mo2 tetrahedra. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
