Li3Ti6Zn3O16 is Spinel-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with four ZnO4 tetrahedra, and edges with six TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.14–2.16 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three LiO6 octahedra and corners with nine TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 56–64°. There are one shorter (2.01 Å) and three longer (2.02 Å) Li–O bond lengths. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with five ZnO4 tetrahedra, and edges with six TiO6 octahedra. There are two shorter (2.14 Å) and four longer (2.15 Å) Li–O bond lengths. There are six inequivalent Ti+3.83+ sites.
