KIO3 is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3m space group. K(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent O(1) atoms to form KO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent K(1)O12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent K(1)O12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent I(1)O6 octahedra. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent K(1) and two equivalent I(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing OK4I2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-60°. I(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form IO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent I(1)O6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent K(1)O12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted.

All K(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 2.97 Å. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent K(1) and two equivalent I(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing OK4I2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-60°. Both O(1)-I(1) bond lengths are 2.10 Å. I(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form IO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent I(1)O6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent K(1)O12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra are not tilted.
