LiNi3 is Uranium Silicide-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li is bonded to twelve Ni atoms to form a mixture of edge, corner, and face-sharing LiNi12 cuboctahedra. There are eight shorter (2.48 Å) and four longer (2.49 Å) Li–Ni bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Ni sites. In the first Ni site, Ni is bonded to four equivalent Li atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing NiLi4 cuboctahedra. In the second Ni site, Ni is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent Li atoms.
