Li6Ti2O7 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form LiO5 square pyramids that share corners with nine LiO5 square pyramids, edges with four equivalent TiO6 octahedra, and edges with four LiO5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.16 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form LiO5 square pyramids that share corners with three equivalent TiO6 octahedra, corners with six LiO5 square pyramids, edges with three equivalent TiO6 octahedra, and edges with five LiO5 square pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 4–12°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.00–2.15 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form LiO5 square pyramids that share corners with nine LiO5 square pyramids, edges with four equivalent TiO6 octahedra, and edges with four LiO5 square pyramids. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.22 Å. Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent TiO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent LiO5 square pyramids, an edgeedge with one TiO6 octahedra, and edges with eleven LiO5 square pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 7–14°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–2.18 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Li1+ and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi4Ti2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–17°. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Li1+ and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi4Ti2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 7–20°. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to five Li1+ and one Ti4+ atom to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi5Ti octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–17°. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to four Li1+ and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OLi4Ti2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 8–20°.
