Li2Fe(PO4)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li is bonded to four O atoms to form distorted LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share corners with two equivalent FeO6 octahedra and corners with four PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 63–83°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.13 Å. In the second Li site, Li is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to four O atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.03–2.12 Å. Fe is bonded to six O atoms to form distorted FeO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and corners with two equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.94–2.50 Å. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P is bonded to four O atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 37–58°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.58 Å. In the second P site, P is bonded to four O atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeO6 octahedra and corners with three equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 31–67°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.56 Å. There are eight inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Li, one Fe, and one P atom. In the second O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Fe and one P atom. In the third O site, O is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two Li and one P atom. In the fourth O site, O is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Fe and one P atom. In the fifth O site, O is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li, one Fe, and one P atom. In the sixth O site, O is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Fe and one P atom. In the seventh O site, O is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to two Li and one P atom. In the eighth O site, O is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Li, one Fe, and one P atom.
