ZrCrAgS4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2/m space group. Zr(1) is bonded to two equivalent S(2) and four equivalent S(1) atoms to form ZrS6 octahedra that share corners with eight equivalent Ag(1)S6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent Zr(1)S6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent Cr(1)S6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 46-48°. Cr(1) is bonded to two equivalent S(1) and four equivalent S(2) atoms to form CrS6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent Ag(1)S6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent Cr(1)S6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent Zr(1)S6 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent Ag(1)S6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 44°. Ag(1) is bonded to two equivalent S(1) and four equivalent S(2) atoms to form distorted AgS6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent Cr(1)S6 octahedra, corners with eight equivalent Zr(1)S6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent Ag(1)S6 octahedra, and faces with two equivalent Cr(1)S6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 44-48°. There are two inequivalent S sites. In the first S site, S(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Zr(1), one Cr(1), and one Ag(1) atom. In the second S site, S(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Zr(1), two equivalent Cr(1), and two equivalent Ag(1) atoms.
