Li4Zn(PS4)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form LiS4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PS4 tetrahedra and corners with seven LiS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–S bond distances ranging from 2.36–2.44 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form LiS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent ZnS4 tetrahedra, corners with four PS4 tetrahedra, and corners with five LiS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–S bond distances ranging from 2.42–2.46 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form LiS4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent ZnS4 tetrahedra, corners with three LiS4 tetrahedra, and corners with four PS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–S bond distances ranging from 2.40–2.44 Å. In the fourth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form distorted LiS4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ZnS4 tetrahedra, corners with four PS4 tetrahedra, and corners with seven LiS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–S bond distances ranging from 2.51–2.74 Å. Zn2+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form ZnS4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PS4 tetrahedra and corners with five LiS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Zn–S bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.40 Å. There are two inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form PS4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent ZnS4 tetrahedra and corners with seven LiS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of P–S bond distances ranging from 2.04–2.11 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four S2- atoms to form PS4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ZnS4 tetrahedra and corners with nine LiS4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of P–S bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.09 Å. There are eight inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded to three Li1+ and one P5+ atom to form corner-sharing SLi3P tetrahedra. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li1+, one Zn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li1+, one Zn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth S2- site, S2- is bonded to three Li1+ and one P5+ atom to form corner-sharing SLi3P tetrahedra. In the fifth S2- site, S2- is bonded to three Li1+ and one P5+ atom to form corner-sharing SLi3P tetrahedra. In the sixth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li1+, one Zn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh S2- site, S2- is bonded to two Li1+, one Zn2+, and one P5+ atom to form corner-sharing SLi2ZnP tetrahedra. In the eighth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two Li1+ and one P5+ atom.
