LiBi(PO3)4 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share corners with four equivalent PO4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one BiO6 octahedra. There are two shorter (1.96 Å) and two longer (2.24 Å) Li–O bond lengths. Bi3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form BiO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid. There are two shorter (2.34 Å) and four longer (2.35 Å) Bi–O bond lengths. There are two inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one BiO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent PO4 tetrahedra, and corners with two equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 49°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.48–1.62 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent BiO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 49–54°. There is two shorter (1.51 Å) and two longer (1.60 Å) P–O bond length. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Bi3+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Bi3+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Bi3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms.
