The compound described by Ho3SbO3 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. There are three inequivalent Ho sites. In the first Ho site, Ho(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Sb(1), one O(3), and three equivalent O(1) atoms. In the second Ho site, Ho(2) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Sb(1), one O(1), one O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms. In the third Ho site, Ho(3) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Sb(1), one O(3), and three equivalent O(2) atoms. Sb(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to two equivalent Ho(2), two equivalent Ho(3), and four equivalent Ho(1) atoms. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to one Ho(2) and three equivalent Ho(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OHo4 tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded to one Ho(2) and three equivalent Ho(3) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OHo4 trigonal pyramids. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded to one Ho(1), one Ho(3), and two equivalent Ho(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OHo4 trigonal pyramids. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
