WZn2TeO6 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. W(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms to form WO6 octahedra that share corners with eight equivalent Zn(1)O4 tetrahedra. Zn(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms to form distorted ZnO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent W(1)O6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent Zn(1)O4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 52-61°. Te(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to two equivalent O(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one W(1), one Zn(1), and one Te(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one W(1), one Zn(1), and one Te(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one W(1) and two equivalent Zn(1) atoms.
