The material described by Li10SnP2S12 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2mc space group. There are four inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one S(1), one S(4), one S(5), and one S(6) atom. In the second Li site, Li(2) is bonded to two equivalent S(1), two equivalent S(3), and two equivalent S(5) atoms to form LiS6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent P(2)S4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent P(1)S4 tetrahedra. In the third Li site, Li(3) is bonded to two equivalent S(2), two equivalent S(4), and two equivalent S(6) atoms to form distorted LiS6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent P(2)S4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent Sn(1)S4 tetrahedra. In the fourth Li site, Li(4) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one S(1), one S(2), one S(3), one S(4), and one S(6) atom. Sn(1) is bonded to two equivalent S(4) and two equivalent S(6) atoms to form SnS4 tetrahedra that share edges with two equivalent Li(3)S6 octahedra. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(1) is bonded to two equivalent S(3) and two equivalent S(5) atoms to form PS4 tetrahedra that share edges with two equivalent Li(2)S6 octahedra. In the second P site, P(2) is bonded to two equivalent S(1) and two equivalent S(2) atoms to form PS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent Li(2)S6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent Li(3)S6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 42-48°. There are six inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(3) is bonded to one Li(2), two equivalent Li(4), and one P(1) atom to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing SLi3P trigonal pyramids. In the second S site, S(4) is bonded in a distorted hexagonal planar geometry to one Li(3), two equivalent Li(1), two equivalent Li(4), and one Sn(1) atom. In the third S site, S(5) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Li(2), two equivalent Li(1), and one P(1) atom. In the fourth S site, S(6) is bonded in a distorted hexagonal planar geometry to one Li(3), two equivalent Li(1), two equivalent Li(4), and one Sn(1) atom. In the fifth S site, S(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one Li(2), two equivalent Li(1), two equivalent Li(4), and one P(2) atom. In the sixth S site, S(2) is bonded to one Li(3), two equivalent Li(4), and one P(2) atom to form distorted corner-sharing SLi3P trigonal pyramids. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
