LiYbBi crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Li(1) is bonded to four equivalent Bi(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing LiBi4 tetrahedra. Yb(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Bi(1) atoms. Bi(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Li(1) and five equivalent Yb(1) atoms.
