In the second Mn+3.33+ site, Mn+3.33+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with six LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 8–12°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.30 Å. In the third Mn+3.33+ site, Mn+3.33+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six LiO6 octahedra, edges with six LiO6 octahedra, and edges with six MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 6–12°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.32 Å. There are seven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to five Li1+ and one Mn+3.33+ atom to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OLi5Mn octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–8°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to three equivalent Li1+ and three Mn+3.33+ atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OLi3Mn3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–4°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and three Mn+3.33+ atoms to form OLi3Mn3 octahedra that share corners with six OLi4Mn2 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi5Mn octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 1–15°. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Li1+ and two equivalent Mn+3.33+ atoms to form OLi4Mn2 octahedra that share corners with six OLi3Mn3 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi5Mn octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–15°. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Li1+ and three Mn+3.33+ atoms to form OLi3Mn3 octahedra that share corners with six OLi3Mn3 octahedra and edges with twelve OLi5Mn octahedra.
