Li3(WO3)8 crystallizes in the cubic Pm-3 space group. Li(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. W(1) is bonded to three equivalent O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms to form corner-sharing WO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 25-30°. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Li(1) and two equivalent W(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent W(1) atoms.
