Li2PtO2 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. Li(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing LiO4 trigonal pyramids. Pt(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Pt(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OLi4Pt2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-21°.
Li2PtO2 is Ilmenite-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. Li(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing LiO4 trigonal pyramids. There are two shorter (1.97 Å) and two longer (2.13 Å) Li(1)-O(1) bond lengths. Pt(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O(1) atoms. All Pt(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 2.07 Å. O(1) is bonded to four equivalent Li(1) and two equivalent Pt(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing OLi4Pt2 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-21°.
