Li2Sn(BO3)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.11 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share corners with three equivalent SnO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.89–2.10 Å. There are two inequivalent B3+ sites. In the first B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.33–1.43 Å. In the second B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.38–1.40 Å. Sn4+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted SnO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with three equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Sn–O bond distances ranging from 2.00–2.22 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one B3+, and one Sn4+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one B3+, and one Sn4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li1+, one B3+, and one Sn4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one B3+, and one Sn4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Li1+ and one B3+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one B3+, and one Sn4+ atom.
