Na3Zr(SiO3)6 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Na sites. In the first Na site, Na is bonded to eight O atoms to form distorted NaO8 hexagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent SiO4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent ZrO6 octahedra, and edges with four SiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.47–2.93 Å. In the second Na site, Na is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.36–2.77 Å. Zr is bonded to six O atoms to form ZrO6 octahedra that share corners with six SiO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent NaO8 hexagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Zr–O bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.14 Å. There are three inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si is bonded to four O atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ZrO6 octahedra, corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one NaO8 hexagonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 33°. There is one shorter (1.62 Å) and three longer (1.63 Å) Si–O bond length. In the second Si site, Si is bonded to four O atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one NaO8 hexagonal bipyramid, a cornercorner with one ZrO6 octahedra, and corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 18°. There is one shorter (1.61 Å) and three longer (1.64 Å) Si–O bond length. In the third Si site, Si is bonded to four O atoms to form SiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one ZrO6 octahedra, corners with two SiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one NaO8 hexagonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 31°. There are a spread of Si–O bond distances ranging from 1.62–1.64 Å. There are ten inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Na and one Si atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Na and two Si atoms. In the third O site, O is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Na and one Si atom. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Na, one Zr, and one Si atom. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Na, one Zr, and one Si atom. In the sixth O site, O is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Na, one Zr, and one Si atom. In the seventh O site, O is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Na and two equivalent Si atoms. In the eighth O site, O is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Na and one Si atom. In the ninth O site, O is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Na and two equivalent Si atoms. In the tenth O site, O is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Na and two Si atoms.
