Li2VF7 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. Li(1) is bonded to one F(2), one F(3), and two equivalent F(1) atoms to form LiF4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent V(1)F6 octahedra and corners with two equivalent Li(1)F4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 50-57°. V(1) is bonded to one F(2), one F(4), and four equivalent F(1) atoms to form VF6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Li(1)F4 tetrahedra. There are four inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F(1) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Li(1) and one V(1) atom. In the second F site, F(2) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Li(1) and one V(1) atom. In the third F site, F(3) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Li(1) atoms. In the fourth F site, F(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom.
