Materials Data on LiSn(PO3)3 by Materials Project
LiSn(PO3)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a distorted L-shaped geometry to two O2- atoms. There are one shorter (1.93 Å) and one longer (2.15 Å) Li–O bond lengths. Sn2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form SnO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sn–O bond distances ranging from 2.41–2.59 Å. There are two inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent SnO6 octahedra and corners with two PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 47–51°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.49–1.66 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent SnO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent PO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 6–57°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.48–1.63 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Sn2+ and one P5+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Sn2+ and one P5+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two P5+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li1+ and two equivalent P5+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Sn2+ and one P5+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+, one Sn2+, and one P5+ atom.
