Sc(CuO2)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sc3+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Sc–O bond lengths are 2.02 Å. Cu+2.50+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O2- atoms. All Cu–O bond lengths are 1.90 Å. O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Sc3+ and two equivalent Cu+2.50+ atoms.
Sc(CuO2)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Sc3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Sc–O bond distances ranging from 2.23–2.31 Å. There are two inequivalent Cu+2.50+ sites. In the first Cu+2.50+ site, Cu+2.50+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.89 Å) and two longer (1.92 Å) Cu–O bond length. In the second Cu+2.50+ site, Cu+2.50+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.89 Å) and two longer (1.91 Å) Cu–O bond length. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Sc3+ and two Cu+2.50+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OSc2Cu2 tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Sc3+ and two Cu+2.50+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OSc2Cu2 tetrahedra.
