The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 45–50°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.08 Å. In the fifth Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted TiO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent TiO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent LiO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 44–48°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.14 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Li1+ and three Ti4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three Ti4+ atoms.
