description: MgTi11O20 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted MgO6 octahedra that share corners with four TiO6 octahedra and edges with six TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 26–42°. There are a spread of Mg–O bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.18 Å. There are seven inequivalent Ti+3.45+ sites. In the first Ti+3.45+ site, Ti+3.45+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted TiO6 octahedra that share corners with four TiO6 octahedra, an edgeedge with one MgO6 octahedra, and edges with five TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 23–53°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.93–2.16 Å. In the second Ti+3.45+ site, Ti+3.45+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing TiO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 24–41°.
