The material described by LiZn(SbO2)4 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Sb(1), one Sb(4), one O(2), one O(3), and one O(4) atom. Zn(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one O(3), one O(7), one O(8), and two equivalent O(6) atoms. There are four inequivalent Sb sites. In the first Sb site, Sb(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one Li(1), one O(7), two equivalent O(4), and two equivalent O(5) atoms. In the second Sb site, Sb(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one O(4), one O(6), and two equivalent O(3) atoms. In the third Sb site, Sb(3) is bonded to one O(1), one O(6), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(8) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing SbO6 octahedra. In the fourth Sb site, Sb(4) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one Li(1), one O(5), two equivalent O(1), and two equivalent O(7) atoms. There are eight inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Sb(3) and two equivalent Sb(4) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li(1) and two equivalent Sb(3) atoms. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded to one Li(1), one Zn(1), and two equivalent Sb(2) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OLiZnSb2 trigonal pyramids. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li(1), one Sb(2), and two equivalent Sb(1) atoms. In the fifth O site, O(5) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Sb(4) and two equivalent Sb(1) atoms. In the sixth O site, O(6) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Zn(1), one Sb(2), and one Sb(3) atom. In the seventh O site, O(7) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Zn(1), one Sb(1), and two equivalent Sb(4) atoms.
