Li3Sb2(PO4)3 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent SbO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.09 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.12 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.48 Å. There are two inequivalent Sb3+ sites. In the first Sb3+ site, Sb3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted SbO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sb–O bond distances ranging from 2.17–2.48 Å. In the second Sb3+ site, Sb3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Sb–O bond distances ranging from 2.05–2.83 Å. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent SbO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one LiO4 tetrahedra, and corners with two equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 21–43°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.58 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent SbO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, and a cornercorner with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 47–48°. There is one shorter (1.54 Å) and three longer (1.56 Å) P–O bond length. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent SbO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one LiO4 tetrahedra, and a cornercorner with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–50°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.58 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom.
