Ba4U8As2O33 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmn2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Ba2+ sites. In the first Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.60–3.29 Å. In the second Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded to eight O2- atoms to form distorted BaO8 hexagonal bipyramids that share corners with four UO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids, and edges with two equivalent AsO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 46–52°. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.72–2.92 Å. In the third Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.76–3.18 Å. There are five inequivalent U6+ sites. In the first U6+ site, U6+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form UO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one BaO8 hexagonal bipyramid, corners with two equivalent UO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one UO7 pentagonal bipyramid, an edgeedge with one UO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 37–39°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 1.87–2.38 Å. In the second U6+ site, U6+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form UO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one BaO8 hexagonal bipyramid, corners with four equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids, corners with two AsO4 tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.26 Å.

The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 56°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 1.85–2.43 Å. In the fourth U6+ site, U6+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form UO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one BaO8 hexagonal bipyramid, corners with four equivalent UO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids, and corners with two AsO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 56°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.28 Å. In the fifth U6+ site, U6+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form distorted UO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with three UO6 octahedra, an edgeedge with one UO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–45°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 1.83–2.44 Å. There are two inequivalent As5+ sites. In the first As5+ site, As5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form AsO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two UO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–52°. There are a spread of As–O bond distances ranging from 1.69–1.76 Å. In the second As5+ site, As5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form AsO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two UO6 octahedra and edges with two equivalent BaO8 hexagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–52°. There are a spread of As–O bond distances ranging from 1.69–1.76 Å. There are twenty inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two Ba2+ and one U6+ atom.
