Ag5Li8 is gamma-brass structured and crystallizes in the cubic I-43m space group. There are two inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li(1) is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to one Li(2), four equivalent Li(1), two equivalent Ag(1), and four equivalent Ag(2) atoms. In the second Li site, Li(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Li(1), three equivalent Ag(1), and three equivalent Ag(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ag sites. In the first Ag site, Ag(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Li(2), six equivalent Li(1), and three equivalent Ag(2) atoms. In the second Ag site, Ag(2) is bonded in a 13-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li(2), eight equivalent Li(1), one Ag(2), and two equivalent Ag(1) atoms.
