Li3Bi2(PO4)3 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.57 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted LiO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with two BiO6 octahedra, corners with three PO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra, and a faceface with one BiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 46–73°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.55 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–1.99 Å. There are two inequivalent Bi3+ sites. In the first Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted BiO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra and a cornercorner with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.27–2.51 Å. In the second Bi3+ site, Bi3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted BiO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra, a cornercorner with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid, and a faceface with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Bi–O bond distances ranging from 2.22–2.53 Å. There are three inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four BiO6 octahedra and a cornercorner with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 26–47°. There is one shorter (1.54 Å) and three longer (1.56 Å) P–O bond length. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four BiO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent LiO5 trigonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 11–57°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.57 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four BiO6 octahedra and an edgeedge with one LiO5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 13–55°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.57 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Bi3+, and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Bi3+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Bi3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Bi3+, and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Bi3+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Bi3+, and one P5+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Bi3+, and one P5+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Bi3+ and one P5+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Bi3+ and one P5+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Bi3+, and one P5+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal pyramidal geometry to two Li1+, one Bi3+, and one P5+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two Li1+, one Bi3+, and one P5+ atom.
