RbBaScSi3O9 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Rb1+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve O2- atoms. There are a spread of Rb–O bond distances ranging from 3.03–3.54 Å. Ba2+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.69–3.21 Å. Sc3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form ScO6 octahedra that share corners with six SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sc–O bond distances ranging from 2.07–2.20 Å. There are three inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent ScO6 octahedra and corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 31–51°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.60–1.69 Å. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent ScO6 octahedra and corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 27–51°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.60–1.69 Å. In the third Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent ScO6 octahedra and corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 38–45°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.61–1.69 Å. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Rb1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Rb1+, one Sc3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, one Sc3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Rb1+, one Ba2+, and two Si4+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Rb1+, one Ba2+, one Sc3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Rb1+, one Sc3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Rb1+, one Ba2+, one Sc3+, and one Si4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, one Sc3+, and one Si4+ atom.
