LiTi(PO3)4 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–2.65 Å. Ti3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted TiO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 2.00–2.17 Å. There are four 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 TiO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 17°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.48–1.63 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 13–21°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.49–1.63 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one TiO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 57°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.48–1.62 Å. In the fourth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 35–46°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.50–1.62 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Ti3+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Li1+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ti3+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Ti3+ and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Ti3+ and one P5+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Ti3+, and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ti3+ and one P5+ atom.
