MgSn2O5 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Mg2+ sites. In the first Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.22–2.37 Å. In the second Mg2+ site, Mg2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.19–2.40 Å. There are four inequivalent Sn4+ sites. In the first Sn4+ site, Sn4+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing SnO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Sn–O bond distances ranging from 1.93–2.23 Å. In the second Sn4+ site, Sn4+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing SnO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Sn–O bond distances ranging from 1.93–2.24 Å. In the third Sn4+ site, Sn4+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing SnO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Sn–O bond distances ranging from 1.93–2.24 Å. In the fourth Sn4+ site, Sn4+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing SnO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Sn–O bond distances ranging from 1.93–2.23 Å. There are ten inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Mg2+ and two Sn4+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OMg2Sn2 tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Mg2+ and two Sn4+ atoms to form distorted corner-sharing OMg2Sn2 tetrahedra. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Sn4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Sn4+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Sn4+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Sn4+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to two equivalent Mg2+ and one Sn4+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to two equivalent Mg2+ and one Sn4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to two equivalent Mg2+ and one Sn4+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to two equivalent Mg2+ and one Sn4+ atom.
