Li2IrGa crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. There are two inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ir(1) and four equivalent Ga(1) atoms to form distorted LiGa4Ir6 tetrahedra that share corners with six equivalent Li(1)Ga4Ir6 tetrahedra, corners with twelve equivalent Li(2)Ir4 tetrahedra, faces with four equivalent Li(2)Ir4 tetrahedra, and faces with twelve equivalent Li(1)Ga4Ir6 tetrahedra. In the second Li site, Li(2) is bonded to four equivalent Ir(1) atoms to form distorted LiIr4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Li(1)Ga4Ir6 tetrahedra, corners with twelve equivalent Li(2)Ir4 tetrahedra, and faces with four equivalent Li(1)Ga4Ir6 tetrahedra. Ir(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Li(2), six equivalent Li(1), and four equivalent Ga(1) atoms. Ga(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Li(1) and four equivalent Ir(1) atoms.
