Y6Zn(SiS7)2 crystallizes in the trigonal P3 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Y3+ sites. In the first Y3+ site, Y3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Y–S bond distances ranging from 2.75–3.11 Å. In the second Y3+ site, Y3+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight S2- atoms. There are a spread of Y–S bond distances ranging from 2.75–3.00 Å. Zn2+ is bonded in an octahedral geometry to six S2- atoms. There are three shorter (2.55 Å) and three longer (2.59 Å) Zn–S bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Si4+ sites. In the first Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four S2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.10 Å) and three longer (2.15 Å) Si–S bond lengths. In the second Si4+ site, Si4+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four S2- atoms. There are one shorter (2.11 Å) and three longer (2.14 Å) Si–S bond lengths. There are six inequivalent S2- sites. In the first S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to three equivalent Y3+ and one Si4+ atom. In the second S2- site, S2- is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to three equivalent Y3+ and one Si4+ atom. In the third S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Y3+ and one Zn2+ atom. In the fourth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four Y3+ and one Zn2+ atom. In the fifth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Y3+ and one Si4+ atom. In the sixth S2- site, S2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Y3+ and one Si4+ atom.
