LiCuO2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. Cu(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Cu(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing OLi3Cu2 trigonal bipyramids.
LiCuO2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent O(1) atoms. There are two shorter (2.10 Å) and four longer (2.28 Å) Li(1)-O(1) bond lengths. Cu(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. All Cu(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.84 Å. O(1) is bonded to three equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Cu(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing OLi3Cu2 trigonal bipyramids.
