Li3Sb2(PO4)3 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.49 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted LiO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with two SbO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with three PO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra, and a faceface with one SbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 46–71°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.50 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, a cornercorner with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid, and edges with two equivalent SbO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.03 Å. There are two inequivalent Sb3+ sites. In the first Sb3+ site, Sb3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted SbO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra, a cornercorner with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid, and edges with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sb–O bond distances ranging from 2.14–2.61 Å. In the second Sb3+ site, Sb3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted SbO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra, a cornercorner with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid, and a faceface with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Sb–O bond distances ranging from 2.07–2.61 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 four SbO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one LiO4 tetrahedra, and corners with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 9–57°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.58 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four SbO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 10–55°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.58 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four SbO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one LiO4 tetrahedra, and a cornercorner with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 21–49°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.58 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Sb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to one Sb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Sb3+ and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Sb3+, and one P5+ atom.
