MgTiO2 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. Mg(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms. Ti(1) is bonded to three equivalent O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms to form edge-sharing TiO6 octahedra. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Mg(1) and three equivalent Ti(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded to three equivalent Mg(1) and three equivalent Ti(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing OMg3Ti3 pentagonal pyramids.
MgTiO2 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. Mg(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms. The Mg(1)-O(1) bond length is 2.08 Å. There are two shorter (2.34 Å) and one longer (2.35 Å) Mg(1)-O(2) bond length. Ti(1) is bonded to three equivalent O(1) and three equivalent O(2) atoms to form edge-sharing TiO6 octahedra. All Ti(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 2.04 Å. All Ti(1)-O(2) bond lengths are 2.15 Å. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Mg(1) and three equivalent Ti(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded to three equivalent Mg(1) and three equivalent Ti(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing OMg3Ti3 pentagonal pyramids.
