CuOMgO crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent CuO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent MgO6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent MgO6 octahedra, and edges with eight equivalent CuO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–10°. There are four shorter (2.03 Å) and two longer (2.24 Å) Mg–O bond lengths. Cu2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted CuO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent MgO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent CuO6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent CuO6 octahedra, and edges with eight equivalent MgO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–10°. There are four shorter (2.03 Å) and two longer (2.59 Å) Cu–O bond lengths. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to three equivalent Mg2+ and three equivalent Cu2+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OMg3Cu3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–10°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to three equivalent Mg2+ and three equivalent Cu2+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OMg3Cu3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–10°. There are two shorter (2.03 Å) and one longer (2.59 Å) O–Cu bond lengths. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three equivalent Mg2+ and three equivalent Cu2+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OMg3Cu3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–10°.

Materials Data on Mg2Cu2O5 by Materials Project

Mg2Cu2O5 is Aluminum carbonitride-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Ima2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.23 Å. There are two inequivalent Cu3+ sites. In the first Cu3+ site, Cu3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CuO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent CuO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent CuO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 36°. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.00 Å. In the second Cu3+ site, Cu3+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form CuO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent CuO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent CuO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 54°. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–1.99 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Mg2+ and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Mg2+ and two Cu3+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OMg2Cu2 tetrahedra. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Mg2+ and two equivalent Cu3+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OMg2Cu2 tetrahedra.
