Li4Mn7(PO4)6 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three O2- atoms. There are one shorter (1.95 Å) and two longer (2.16 Å) Li–O bond lengths. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.04–2.41 Å. In the third 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 1.96–2.54 Å. There are four inequivalent Mn2+ sites. In the first Mn2+ site, Mn2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted MnO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one MnO6 octahedra, corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one MnO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 61°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 2.10–2.70 Å. In the second Mn2+ site, Mn2+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.22 Å. In the third Mn2+ site, Mn2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with four MnO6 octahedra and corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 61–67°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 2.12–2.20 Å. In the fourth Mn2+ site, Mn2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share a cornercorner with one MnO6 octahedra, corners with four PO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one MnO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 67°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 2.14–2.40 Å. There are four inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four MnO6 octahedra and an edgeedge with one MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 39–56°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.58 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 41–53°. There is two shorter (1.54 Å) and two longer (1.57 Å) P–O bond length. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 40–53°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.53–1.57 Å. In the fourth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four MnO6 octahedra and an edgeedge with one MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 39–57°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.54–1.57 Å. There are fourteen inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Mn2+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two Mn2+ and one P5+ atom.
