Ag5SbS4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmc2_1 space group. There are three inequivalent Ag sites. In the first Ag site, Ag(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one S(1), one S(2), and one S(3) atom. In the second Ag site, Ag(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one S(1), one S(2), and one S(3) atom. In the third Ag site, Ag(3) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one S(3) and two equivalent S(1) atoms. Sb(1) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one S(2) and two equivalent S(1) atoms. There are three inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(1) is bonded to one Ag(1), one Ag(2), one Ag(3), and one Sb(1) atom to form distorted corner-sharing SAg3Sb tetrahedra. In the second S site, S(2) is bonded in a distorted pentagonal planar geometry to two equivalent Ag(1), two equivalent Ag(2), and one Sb(1) atom. In the third S site, S(3) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Ag(3), two equivalent Ag(1), and two equivalent Ag(2) atoms.
