WSb3 is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. W(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Sb(2) and eight equivalent Sb(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Sb sites. In the first Sb site, Sb(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent W(1) and four equivalent Sb(2) atoms. In the second Sb site, Sb(2) is bonded to four equivalent W(1) and eight equivalent Sb(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, corner, and edge-sharing SbSb8W4 cuboctahedra.
