The structure described by MoP2O7 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. Mo(1) is bonded to one O(2), one O(3), one O(5), one O(6), and two equivalent O(4) atoms to form MoO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent P(1)O4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent P(2)O4 tetrahedra, and  an edgeedge with one Mo(1)O6 octahedra. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(4), one O(5), and one O(7) atom to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Mo(1)O6 octahedra and  a cornercorner with one P(2)O4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 38-58°. In the second P site, P(2) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), one O(3), and one O(6) atom to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Mo(1)O6 octahedra and  a cornercorner with one P(1)O4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 35-47°. There are seven inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one P(1) and one P(2) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Mo(1) and one P(2) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mo(1) and one P(2) atom. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Mo(1) and one P(1) atom. In the fifth O site, O(5) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mo(1) and one P(1) atom. In the sixth O site, O(6) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mo(1) and one P(2) atom. In the seventh O site, O(7) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P(1) atom. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
