LiMnPO4 is Chalcostibite-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.09 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted LiO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with three equivalent MnO4 tetrahedra and corners with five PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.10–2.66 Å. There are two inequivalent Mn2+ sites. In the first Mn2+ site, Mn2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form MnO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four PO4 tetrahedra and corners with three equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 2.07–2.10 Å. In the second Mn2+ site, Mn2+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 2.05–2.34 Å. There are two 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 MnO4 tetrahedra and corners with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.57 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent MnO4 tetrahedra and corners with three equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. There is two shorter (1.56 Å) and two longer (1.57 Å) P–O bond length. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to two equivalent Li1+, one Mn2+, and one P5+ atom to form distorted OLi2MnP tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent OLiMn2P trigonal pyramids and an edgeedge with one OLi2MnP tetrahedra. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Li1+, two equivalent Mn2+, and one P5+ atom to form distorted OLiMn2P trigonal pyramids that share corners with three equivalent OLi2MnP tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one OLiMn2P trigonal pyramid. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Mn2+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, and one P5+ atom.
