ZnWO4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmce space group. W(1) is bonded to one O(2), one O(3), two equivalent O(1), and two equivalent O(4) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing WO6 pentagonal pyramids. Zn(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms. There are four inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent W(1) and one Zn(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one W(1) and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one W(1) and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent W(1) atoms.
