Ni4ZnO5 is Caswellsilverite-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ni2+ sites. In the first Ni2+ site, Ni2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NiO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent NiO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent ZnO6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent ZnO6 octahedra, and edges with nine NiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°. There are three shorter (2.11 Å) and three longer (2.12 Å) Ni–O bond lengths. In the second Ni2+ site, Ni2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing NiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. All Ni–O bond lengths are 2.12 Å. Zn2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form ZnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent NiO6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent NiO6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent ZnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 1°. All Zn–O bond lengths are 2.14 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to three equivalent Ni2+ and three equivalent Zn2+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OZn3Ni3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to six Ni2+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing ONi6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to six equivalent Ni2+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing ONi6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°.
