K(WO3)3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form distorted KO12 cuboctahedra that share edges with twelve equivalent WO6 octahedra and faces with two equivalent KO12 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 3.23–3.46 Å. W+5.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form WO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent WO6 octahedra and edges with four equivalent KO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–32°. There is four shorter (1.94 Å) and two longer (1.96 Å) W–O bond length. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent W+5.67+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two equivalent W+5.67+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent K1+ and two equivalent W+5.67+ atoms.
