Li3Sn2P5O16 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form LiO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with three equivalent SnO5 square pyramids, corners with five PO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.29 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are two shorter (1.92 Å) and two longer (2.30 Å) Li–O bond lengths. Sn2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted SnO5 square pyramids that share corners with five PO4 tetrahedra and corners with three equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Sn–O bond distances ranging from 2.37–2.64 Å. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent SnO5 square pyramids, a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra, and corners with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.65 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent SnO5 square pyramids and corners with two equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. There is two shorter (1.50 Å) and two longer (1.59 Å) P–O bond length. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one SnO5 square pyramid, corners with two PO4 tetrahedra, and corners with three equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.61 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Li1+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms.
