Mn3Fe2Sb(PO4)6 crystallizes in the trigonal R3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Mn+2.33+ sites. In the first Mn+2.33+ site, Mn+2.33+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are three shorter (1.98 Å) and three longer (2.09 Å) Mn–O bond lengths. In the second Mn+2.33+ site, Mn+2.33+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one FeO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (2.02 Å) and three longer (2.14 Å) Mn–O bond lengths. In the third Mn+2.33+ site, Mn+2.33+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a faceface with one FeO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (1.98 Å) and three longer (2.08 Å) Mn–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Fe3+ sites. In the first Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six O2- atoms. There are three shorter (2.14 Å) and three longer (2.30 Å) Fe–O bond lengths. In the second Fe3+ site, Fe3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and faces with two MnO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (2.18 Å) and three longer (2.20 Å) Fe–O bond lengths. Sb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form SbO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There is three shorter (1.96 Å) and three longer (2.02 Å) Sb–O bond length. There are two inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one FeO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one SbO6 octahedra, and corners with three MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 26–52°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.58 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one FeO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one SbO6 octahedra, and corners with three MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 31–49°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.63 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mn+2.33+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Mn+2.33+, one Fe3+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sb5+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Mn+2.33+, one Fe3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mn+2.33+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Fe3+, one Sb5+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Mn+2.33+, one Fe3+, and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Mn+2.33+ and one P5+ atom.
