The material described by LiSnCl3 crystallizes in the trigonal R3c space group. Li(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form corner-sharing LiCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 26°. Sn(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Cl(1) atoms. Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to two equivalent Li(1) and one Sn(1) atom. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
