The crystal structure described by Mn2SnO4 is Spinel-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. There are two inequivalent Mn sites. In the first Mn site, Mn(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms to form MnO4 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mn(2)O6 octahedra and corners with six equivalent Sn(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 57-60°. In the second Mn site, Mn(2) is bonded to two equivalent O(1) and four equivalent O(2) atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mn(1)O4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent Mn(2)O6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent Sn(1)O6 octahedra. Sn(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form SnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mn(1)O4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent Sn(1)O6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent Mn(2)O6 octahedra. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Mn(1), one Mn(2), and two equivalent Sn(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Mn(1), two equivalent Mn(2), and one Sn(1) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
