Li3Hg is Uranium Silicide-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li is bonded to four equivalent Hg atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing LiHg4 cuboctahedra. All Li–Hg bond lengths are 2.92 Å. In the second Li site, Li is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Hg atoms. All Li–Hg bond lengths are 2.94 Å. Hg is bonded to twelve Li atoms to form a mixture of face, edge, and corner-sharing HgLi12 cuboctahedra.
