VCo2P crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. V(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Co(1), four equivalent Co(2), and three equivalent P(1) atoms. All V(1)-Co(1) bond lengths are 2.39 Å. There is one shorter (1.89 Å) and three longer (2.66 Å) V(1)-Co(2) bond lengths. All V(1)-P(1) bond lengths are 2.39 Å. There are two inequivalent Co sites. In the first Co site, Co(1) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three equivalent V(1) and one P(1) atom. The Co(1)-P(1) bond length is 1.89 Å. In the second Co site, Co(2) is bonded in a linear geometry to four equivalent V(1) and one P(1) atom. The Co(2)-P(1) bond length is 2.02 Å. P(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent V(1), one Co(1), and one Co(2) atom.
