A new lithium copper bismuth oxide, LiCuBiO{sub 4} was prepared by hydrothermal reaction using NaBiO{sub 3}0.1*4H{sub 2}O. The crystal structural model of this compound was refined by using synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction data. This bismuthate has the LiCuSbO{sub 4} related structure with the orthorhombic cell (Space group: Pnma) of a=10.9096(9), b=5.8113(5) and c=5.0073(4) Å, and the final R-factors were R{sub wp}=4.84 and R{sub p}=3.58%. This compound is the first example of a lithium copper bismuthate containing Bi{sup 5+}. An antiferromagnetic ordering of Cu{sup 2+} moment was observed at 6 K. - Graphical abstract: In the crystal structure of LiCuBiO{sub 4} all metal atoms are coordinated octahedrally by six O atoms and LiO{sub 6} and CuO{sub 6} octahedra form the one-dimensional chains by edge-sharing along the b-axis. The LiO{sub 6} and CuO{sub 6} chains form the layer by face-sharing in the bc plane. The Bi atoms are placed in that interlayer and BiO{sub 6} octahedra are edge-sharing with LiO{sub 6} and CuO{sub 6} octahedra. - Highlights: • A new lithium copper bismuth oxide, LiCuBiO{sub 4} is prepared by hydrothermal reaction. • The crystal structure of LiCuBiO{sub 4} is closely related with that of LiCuSbO{sub 4}. • This new compound exhibits an antiferromagnetic ordering of Cu{sup 2+} moment at 6 K.
