LiCuCO3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted LiO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with six equivalent CuO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.14 Å. Cu1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form CuO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent CuO4 tetrahedra and corners with six equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 2.03–2.21 Å. There are three inequivalent C4+ sites. In the first C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. All C–O bond lengths are 1.30 Å. In the second C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. All C–O bond lengths are 1.30 Å. In the third C4+ site, C4+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O2- atoms. All C–O bond lengths are 1.30 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Li1+, one Cu1+, and one C4+ atom to form distorted corner-sharing OLi2CuC tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, two equivalent Cu1+, and one C4+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Li1+, one Cu1+, and one C4+ atom.
