Li(BiO2)2 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/ncc space group. Li(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. Bi(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing BiO6 pentagonal pyramids. O(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Li(1) and three equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
Li(BiO2)2 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4/ncc space group. Li(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. All Li(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 2.01 Å. Bi(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing BiO6 pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Bi(1)-O(1) bond distances ranging from 2.23-2.49 Å. O(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Li(1) and three equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
