Cu3SO8 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Cu sites. In the first Cu site, Cu is bonded to six O atoms to form distorted CuO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one SO4 tetrahedra and edges with six CuO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–2.47 Å. In the second Cu site, Cu is bonded to six O atoms to form distorted CuO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent SO4 tetrahedra and edges with four CuO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.79–2.54 Å. S is bonded to four O atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with seven CuO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 41–57°. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.46–1.52 Å. There are six inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to three Cu atoms. In the second O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Cu atoms. In the third O site, O is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three Cu atoms. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Cu and one S atom. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three Cu and one S atom. In the sixth O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu and one S atom.
