Zn(SnO2)4 is Hydrophilite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure consists of two 7440-66-6 atoms inside a SnO2 framework. In the SnO2 framework, there are four inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn(1) is bonded to one O(2), one O(7), two equivalent O(4), and two equivalent O(5) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing SnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 50-51°. In the second Sn site, Sn(2) is bonded to one O(4), one O(8), two equivalent O(3), and two equivalent O(6) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing SnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 50-51°. In the third Sn site, Sn(3) is bonded to one O(1), one O(6), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(8) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing SnO6 octahedra.
