description: Li8FeO6 crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are ten inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li is bonded to four O atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two FeO4 tetrahedra, corners with six LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with four LiO4 trigonal pyramids, edges with two equivalent LiO4 tetrahedra, and edges with three LiO4 trigonal pyramids. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.04 Å. In the second Li site, Li is bonded to four O atoms to form distorted LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share corners with eight LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with six LiO4 trigonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one FeO4 tetrahedra, and edges with three LiO4 tetrahedra. There are three shorter (1.98 Å) and one longer (2.22 Å) Li–O bond lengths. In the third Li site, Li is bonded to four O atoms to form distorted LiO4 trigonal pyramids that share corners with eight LiO4 tetrahedra, corners with six LiO4 trigonal pyramids, an edgeedge with one FeO4 tetrahedra, and edges with three LiO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.24 Å.
