Na2Cu3(SiO3)4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na1+ sites. In the first Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.31–2.72 Å. In the second Na1+ site, Na1+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.61 Å. There are three inequivalent Cu2+ sites. In the first Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.92 Å) and two longer (1.97 Å) Cu–O bond length. In the second Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.97 Å) and two longer (1.98 Å) Cu–O bond length. In the third Cu2+ site, Cu2+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.91 Å) and two longer (2.06 Å) Cu–O bond length. There are two inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.61–1.67 Å. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form corner-sharing SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.62–1.66 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Na1+, one Cu2+, and one Si4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Na1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Cu2+ and one Si4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Na1+ and two Si4+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Na1+, two Cu2+, and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded to two Na1+, one Cu2+, and one Si4+ atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing ONa2CuSi tetrahedra.
