Li2MgTi3O8 is Spinel-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic P2_13 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent LiO6 octahedra and corners with nine equivalent TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 55–64°. All Li–O bond lengths are 2.00 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent MgO4 tetrahedra, and edges with six equivalent TiO6 octahedra. There are three shorter (2.14 Å) and three longer (2.15 Å) Li–O bond lengths. Mg2+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form MgO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent LiO6 octahedra and corners with nine equivalent TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 56–63°. There is one shorter (1.98 Å) and three longer (1.99 Å) Mg–O bond length. Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with three equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent MgO4 tetrahedra, edges with two equivalent LiO6 octahedra, and edges with four equivalent TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–2.08 Å. There are four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Li1+, one Mg2+, and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OLiMgTi2 trigonal pyramids. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Mg2+ and three equivalent Ti4+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OMgTi3 trigonal pyramids. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded to two Li1+ and two equivalent Ti4+ atoms to form distorted OLi2Ti2 trigonal pyramids that share corners with twelve OLiMgTi2 trigonal pyramids and edges with three OLi2Ti2 trigonal pyramids. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Li1+ and three equivalent Ti4+ atoms to form distorted OLiTi3 trigonal pyramids that share corners with twelve OLiMgTi2 trigonal pyramids and edges with three equivalent OLi2Ti2 trigonal pyramids.
