Li4MnFe3(BO3)4 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share corners with four FeO5 trigonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one MnO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.96–2.05 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share a cornercorner with one MnO5 trigonal bipyramid, corners with three FeO5 trigonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra, and an edgeedge with one FeO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.95–2.07 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one MnO5 trigonal bipyramid, corners with three FeO5 trigonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one FeO5 trigonal bipyramid, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.94–2.04 Å. In the fourth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent MnO5 trigonal bipyramids, corners with two equivalent FeO5 trigonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one FeO5 trigonal bipyramid, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.94–2.05 Å. Mn2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form MnO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with three LiO4 tetrahedra, a cornercorner with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid, edges with two FeO5 trigonal bipyramids, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 2.07–2.49 Å. There are three inequivalent Fe2+ sites. In the first Fe2+ site, Fe2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted FeO5 trigonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with three LiO4 trigonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra, an edgeedge with one MnO5 trigonal bipyramid, and an edgeedge with one FeO5 trigonal bipyramid. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 2.00–2.48 Å. In the second Fe2+ site, Fe2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form FeO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one MnO5 trigonal bipyramid, an edgeedge with one FeO5 trigonal bipyramid, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.39 Å. In the third Fe2+ site, Fe2+ is bonded to five O2- atoms to form distorted FeO5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one LiO4 tetrahedra, and edges with two FeO5 trigonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Fe–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.49 Å. There are four 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 1.38–1.40 Å. In the second B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.37 Å) and two longer (1.40 Å) B–O bond length. In the third 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 1.38–1.41 Å. In the fourth B3+ site, B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.38 Å) and two longer (1.40 Å) B–O bond length. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two Li1+, one Fe2+, and one B3+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Li1+, two Fe2+, and one B3+ atom to form distorted edge-sharing OLiFe2B tetrahedra. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, one Fe2+, and one B3+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, two equivalent Fe2+, and one B3+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, one Fe2+, and one B3+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two Li1+, one Fe2+, and one B3+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, two equivalent Fe2+, and one B3+ atom. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Li1+, two Fe2+, and one B3+ atom to form distorted edge-sharing OLiFe2B tetrahedra.

In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two Li1+, one Fe2+, and one B3+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, one Fe2+, and one B3+ atom. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Mn2+, one Fe2+, and one B3+ atom.
