The compound described by K4BeP2 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. There are two inequivalent K sites. In the first K site, K(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Be(1) and three equivalent P(1) atoms. In the second K site, K(2) is bonded to four equivalent P(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing KP4 tetrahedra. Be(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to six equivalent K(1) and two equivalent P(1) atoms. P(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three equivalent K(1), four equivalent K(2), and one Be(1) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
