KB(SO4)2 crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/ncc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. K1+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.87 Å) and four longer (2.95 Å) K–O bond lengths. B3+ is bonded to four equivalent O2- atoms to form BO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent SO4 tetrahedra. All B–O bond lengths are 1.48 Å. S6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent BO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.44 Å) and two longer (1.56 Å) S–O bond length. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one B3+ and one S6+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent K1+ and one S6+ atom.
