LiNi2(SO4)3 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.57 Å. There are two inequivalent Ni+2.50+ sites. In the first Ni+2.50+ site, Ni+2.50+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NiO6 octahedra that share corners with six SO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ni–O bond distances ranging from 2.05–2.10 Å. In the second Ni+2.50+ site, Ni+2.50+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NiO6 octahedra that share corners with six SO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ni–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.13 Å. There are three inequivalent S6+ sites. In the first S6+ site, S6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four NiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 31–44°. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.48–1.50 Å. In the second S6+ site, S6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four NiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 19–43°. There is two shorter (1.47 Å) and two longer (1.50 Å) S–O bond length. In the third S6+ site, S6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four NiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 20–46°. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.48–1.50 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Ni+2.50+, and one S6+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Ni+2.50+, and one S6+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ni+2.50+ and one S6+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ni+2.50+ and one S6+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ni+2.50+ and one S6+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ni+2.50+ and one S6+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li1+, one Ni+2.50+, and one S6+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ni+2.50+ and one S6+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ni+2.50+ and one S6+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Ni+2.50+, and one S6+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ni+2.50+ and one S6+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Ni+2.50+, and one S6+ atom.
