ZnPbO3 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R3c space group. Zn(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form distorted ZnO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent Pb(1)O6 octahedra, corners with six equivalent Zn(1)O6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent Pb(1)O6 octahedra, and  a faceface with one Pb(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 47-63°. Pb(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form distorted PbO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent Zn(1)O6 octahedra, corners with six equivalent Pb(1)O6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent Zn(1)O6 octahedra, and  a faceface with one Zn(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 52-63°. O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Zn(1) and two equivalent Pb(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OZn2Pb2 trigonal pyramids.
