Materials Data on Li2B4O7 by Materials Project
Li2B4O7 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1cd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.89–2.41 Å. There are two inequivalent B3+ sites. In the first B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of B–O bond distances ranging from 1.30–1.48 Å. In the second B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is two shorter (1.38 Å) and one longer (1.41 Å) B–O bond length. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Li1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+ and two B3+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Li1+ and one B3+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two equivalent B3+ atoms.
