The structure described by ZnFeO2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. There are two inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe(1) is bonded to one O(2), one O(3), and two equivalent O(1) atoms to form distorted FeO4 trigonal pyramids that share corners with four equivalent Zn(1)O4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent Fe(2)O5 trigonal bipyramids, and corners with two equivalent Fe(1)O4 trigonal pyramids.

In the second Zn site, Zn(2) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one O(3), one O(4), and two equivalent O(2) atoms. There are four inequivalent O sites.
