AgPb2Sb3S7 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ag1+ sites. In the first Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded to six S2- atoms to form distorted AgS6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent SbS6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent PbS7 pentagonal bipyramids, corners with four SbS5 square pyramids, edges with two equivalent AgS6 octahedra, an edgeedge with one SbS5 square pyramid, and a faceface with one SbS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 44–48°. There are a spread of Ag–S bond distances ranging from 2.54–3.25 Å. In the second Ag1+ site, Ag1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form AgS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent SbS6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one PbS7 pentagonal bipyramid, corners with four SbS5 square pyramids, corners with two equivalent AgS4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one SbS5 square pyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 66–70°. There are a spread of Ag–S bond distances ranging from 2.54–2.64 Å. There are four inequivalent Pb2+ sites. In the first Pb2+ site, Pb2+ is bonded to seven S2- atoms to form distorted PbS7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent AgS6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one AgS4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent SbS5 square pyramids, and faces with two equivalent PbS7 pentagonal bipyramids.
