Li4MnCo3O8 is alpha Po-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3m 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 CoO6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six CoO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 4°. There are three shorter (2.13 Å) and three longer (2.15 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 three equivalent MnO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent CoO6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent MnO6 octahedra, edges with three equivalent CoO6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent LiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–9°. There are three shorter (2.04 Å) and three longer (2.26 Å) Li–O bond lengths. Mn2+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent LiO6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 9°. All Mn–O bond lengths are 2.01 Å. There are two inequivalent Co+3.33+ sites. In the first Co+3.33+ site, Co+3.33+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with six LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent CoO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–4°. There are three shorter (2.03 Å) and three longer (2.07 Å) Co–O bond lengths. In the second Co+3.33+ site, Co+3.33+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent LiO6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent CoO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 4°. All Co–O bond lengths are 2.04 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to three equivalent Li1+ and three equivalent Co+3.33+ atoms to form OLi3Co3 octahedra that share corners with six OLi3Mn3 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi3Co3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–8°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to three equivalent Li1+ and three equivalent Mn2+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi3Mn3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–8°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three equivalent Li1+ and three equivalent Co+3.33+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi3Co3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 1°. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three equivalent Li1+ and three equivalent Co+3.33+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi3Co3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–1°.
