Li6Ti2O7 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are twelve inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.95 Å) and two longer (1.96 Å) Li–O bond length. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.24 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with five TiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.50 Å. In the fourth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.89–1.98 Å. In the fifth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.42 Å. In the sixth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.89–2.38 Å. In the seventh Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.26 Å. In the eighth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms.
