LiTi3O6 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. 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 1.86–2.06 Å. There are three inequivalent Ti+3.67+ sites. In the first Ti+3.67+ site, Ti+3.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–49°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.09 Å. In the second Ti+3.67+ site, Ti+3.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–49°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.07 Å. In the third Ti+3.67+ site, Ti+3.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–49°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.06 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three Ti+3.67+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Li1+ and three Ti+3.67+ atoms to form OLi2Ti3 square pyramids that share corners with two equivalent OLiTi3 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent OLi2Ti3 square pyramids, edges with two equivalent OLiTi3 tetrahedra, and edges with two equivalent OLiTi3 trigonal pyramids. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Ti+3.67+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three Ti+3.67+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Li1+ and three Ti+3.67+ atoms to form distorted OLiTi3 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent OLi2Ti3 square pyramids, corners with two equivalent OLiTi3 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent OLiTi3 trigonal pyramids, edges with two equivalent OLi2Ti3 square pyramids, and an edgeedge with one OLiTi3 trigonal pyramid. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Li1+ and three Ti+3.67+ atoms to form OLiTi3 trigonal pyramids that share corners with three equivalent OLiTi3 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent OLiTi3 trigonal pyramids, edges with two equivalent OLi2Ti3 square pyramids, and an edgeedge with one OLiTi3 tetrahedra.
