V2SiP crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. There are two inequivalent V sites. In the first V site, V(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Si(1) and two equivalent P(1) atoms. There are a spread of V(1)-Si(1) bond distances ranging from 2.03-2.64 Å. There is one shorter (2.32 Å) and one longer (2.80 Å) V(1)-P(1) bond length. In the second V site, V(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Si(1) and four equivalent P(1) atoms. There is one shorter (2.53 Å) and one longer (2.59 Å) V(2)-Si(1) bond length. There are a spread of V(2)-P(1) bond distances ranging from 1.97-2.59 Å. Si(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent V(2) and four equivalent V(1) atoms. P(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent V(1) and four equivalent V(2) atoms.
