VSO8 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two VSO8 clusters. V(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), one O(4), one O(5), one O(7), and one O(8) atom to form distorted VO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent S(1)O4 tetrahedra. S(1) is bonded to one O(3), one O(6), one O(7), and one O(8) atom to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent V(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 37-41°. There are eight inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(7) is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one V(1) and one S(1) atom. In the second O site, O(8) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one V(1) and one S(1) atom. In the third O site, O(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom. In the fourth O site, O(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom. In the fifth O site, O(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S(1) atom. In the sixth O site, O(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom. In the seventh O site, O(5) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom. In the eighth O site, O(6) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one S(1) atom.
