Li2Co2(SO4)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share corners with four SO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent CoO6 octahedra. There is one shorter (1.93 Å) and three longer (1.95 Å) Li–O bond length. Co2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CoO6 octahedra that share corners with six SO4 tetrahedra and edges with two equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Co–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.21 Å. There are two inequivalent S6+ sites. In the first S6+ site, S6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CoO6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 24–40°. There is two shorter (1.47 Å) and two longer (1.50 Å) S–O bond length. In the second S6+ site, S6+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form SO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four equivalent CoO6 octahedra and corners with three equivalent LiO4 trigonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 18–47°. There are a spread of S–O bond distances ranging from 1.46–1.50 Å. There are six inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Co2+, and one S6+ atom. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Co2+, and one S6+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Co2+, and one S6+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Co2+, and one S6+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one S6+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co2+ and one S6+ atom.
