description: Li4Nb3Mn3(TeO8)2 is Hausmannite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent Li1+ sites. In the first Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four MnO6 octahedra and corners with five NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 43–62°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.07–2.16 Å. In the second Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form distorted LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share a cornercorner with one MnO6 octahedra, corners with two equivalent NbO6 octahedra, an edgeedge with one NbO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 60–63°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.17 Å. In the third Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.94–2.06 Å. In the fourth Li1+ site, Li1+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four NbO6 octahedra and corners with five MnO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 51–63°. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 2.04–2.09 Å. There are two inequivalent Nb5+ sites. In the first Nb5+ site, Nb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted NbO6 octahedra that share corners with three LiO4 tetrahedra, edges with four equivalent MnO6 octahedra, and an edgeedge with one LiO4 trigonal pyramid.
