Li3Cr3CoO8 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six CrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–8°. There are two shorter (2.17 Å) and four longer (2.20 Å) Li–O bond lengths. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent CrO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with four LiO6 octahedra, and edges with four CrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 7–10°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.14–2.16 Å. There are two inequivalent Cr+3.67+ sites. In the first Cr+3.67+ site, Cr+3.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent LiO6 octahedra, edges with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with four LiO6 octahedra, and edges with four CrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 7–10°. There are two shorter (2.01 Å) and four longer (2.02 Å) Cr–O bond lengths. In the second Cr+3.67+ site, Cr+3.67+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share edges with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent CrO6 octahedra, and edges with six LiO6 octahedra. There is two shorter (1.92 Å) and four longer (1.94 Å) Cr–O bond length. Co2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent LiO6 octahedra, edges with four equivalent LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six CrO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 5–8°. All Co–O bond lengths are 1.97 Å. There are three inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Li1+ and three Cr+3.67+ atoms to form OLi2Cr3 square pyramids that share corners with nine OLi2Cr2Co square pyramids, edges with four equivalent OLi3Cr2Co octahedra, and edges with four equivalent OLi2Cr2Co square pyramids. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+, two equivalent Cr+3.67+, and one Co2+ atom to form OLi3Cr2Co octahedra that share corners with six equivalent OLi3Cr2Co octahedra and edges with twelve OLi2Cr2Co square pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 0°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to two Li1+, two Cr+3.67+, and one Co2+ atom to form OLi2Cr2Co square pyramids that share corners with nine OLi2Cr2Co square pyramids, edges with four equivalent OLi3Cr2Co octahedra, and edges with four OLi2Cr2Co square pyramids.
