description: Li2MnF5 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are six inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six F1- atoms to form distorted LiF6 octahedra that share corners with six MnF5 square pyramids and an edgeedge with one LiF6 octahedra. There are a spread of Li–F bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.28 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four F1- atoms. There are a spread of Li–F bond distances ranging from 1.89–2.13 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four F1- atoms. There are a spread of Li–F bond distances ranging from 1.85–2.21 Å. In the fourth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to six F1- atoms to form distorted LiF6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent LiF6 octahedra and corners with six MnF5 square pyramids.
