The compound described by Co3(O2F)2 is Hydrophilite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. There are four inequivalent Co sites. In the first Co site, Co(1) is bonded to one O(1), two equivalent O(3), one F(1), and two equivalent F(2) atoms to form CoO3F3 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent Co(4)O4F2 octahedra, corners with four equivalent Co(3)O5F octahedra,  an edgeedge with one Co(1)O3F3 octahedra, and  an edgeedge with one Co(2)O4F2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 46-52°. In the second Co site, Co(2) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent F(1) atoms to form CoO4F2 octahedra that share corners with eight equivalent Co(3)O5F octahedra and edges with two equivalent Co(1)O3F3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 44-52°. In the third Co site, Co(3) is bonded to one O(1), two equivalent O(2), two equivalent O(3), and one F(1) atom to form CoO5F octahedra that share corners with four equivalent Co(1)O3F3 octahedra, corners with four equivalent Co(2)O4F2 octahedra,  an edgeedge with one Co(4)O4F2 octahedra, and  an edgeedge with one Co(3)O5F octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 44-52°. In the fourth Co site, Co(4) is bonded to four equivalent O(3) and two equivalent F(2) atoms to form CoO4F2 octahedra that share corners with eight equivalent Co(1)O3F3 octahedra and edges with two equivalent Co(3)O5F octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 47-52°. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Co(1), one Co(2), and one Co(3) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Co(2) and two equivalent Co(3) atoms. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Co(1), one Co(3), and one Co(4) atom. There are two inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Co(1), one Co(2), and one Co(3) atom. In the second F site, F(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Co(4) and two equivalent Co(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
