Li4P2O7 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.86 Å) and two longer (1.89 Å) Li–O bond length. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.08 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra and corners with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.08 Å. In the fourth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one OLi3O tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent PO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.01–2.14 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 OLi3O tetrahedra and corners with five LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.52–1.65 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.56–2.01 Å. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and one P5+ atom to form distorted OLi3P tetrahedra that share corners with two OLi3O tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one OLi3P tetrahedra. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and one O2- atom to form distorted OLi3O tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one LiO4 tetrahedra, a cornercorner with one PO4 tetrahedra, and corners with four OLi3P tetrahedra. The O–O bond length is 1.50 Å. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Li1+ and one P5+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one P5+, and one O2- atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and one P5+ atom to form distorted OLi3P tetrahedra that share corners with four OLi3O tetrahedra and an edgeedge with one OLi3P tetrahedra. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to two Li1+ and one P5+ atom.
