The crystal structure described by K2YbSbO7 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imma space group. There are two inequivalent K sites. In the first K site, K(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(3), and four equivalent O(2) atoms to form KO8 hexagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent K(1)O8 hexagonal bipyramids, corners with two equivalent Sb(1)O6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent K(2)O8 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent Sb(1)O6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent Yb(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 51°. In the second K site, K(2) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) and four equivalent O(2) atoms to form distorted KO8 hexagonal bipyramids that share edges with two equivalent K(2)O8 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with four equivalent K(1)O8 hexagonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent Yb(1)O6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent Sb(1)O6 octahedra. Yb(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(3) and four equivalent O(2) atoms to form YbO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent Yb(1)O6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent Sb(1)O6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent K(2)O8 hexagonal bipyramids, and edges with four equivalent K(1)O8 hexagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 37-51°. Sb(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1) and four equivalent O(2) atoms to form SbO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent K(1)O8 hexagonal bipyramids, corners with four equivalent Yb(1)O6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent K(1)O8 hexagonal bipyramids, and edges with four equivalent K(2)O8 hexagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 37°. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one K(1), two equivalent K(2), and one Sb(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one K(1), one K(2), one Yb(1), and one Sb(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K(1) and two equivalent Yb(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
