The compound described by MgZn2(SbO3)4 crystallizes in the tetragonal P-4 space group. Mg(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(2) atoms to form distorted MgO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent Zn(1)O6 octahedra and edges with four equivalent Sb(2)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 62°. Zn(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms to form ZnO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent Sb(1)O6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent Sb(2)O6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent Mg(1)O4 tetrahedra,  an edgeedge with one Sb(1)O6 octahedra, and  an edgeedge with one Sb(2)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 45-56°. There are two inequivalent Sb sites. In the first Sb site, Sb(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(3) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form SbO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent Zn(1)O6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent Sb(1)O6 octahedra,  an edgeedge with one Zn(1)O6 octahedra, and  an edgeedge with one Sb(2)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 45-48°. In the second Sb site, Sb(2) is bonded to two equivalent O(3) and four equivalent O(2) atoms to form distorted SbO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent Zn(1)O6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent Sb(2)O6 octahedra,  an edgeedge with one Zn(1)O6 octahedra,  an edgeedge with one Sb(1)O6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent Mg(1)O4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 47-56°. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Zn(1) and two equivalent Sb(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Mg(1), one Zn(1), and two equivalent Sb(2) atoms. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Zn(1), one Sb(1), and one Sb(2) atom. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
