description: NaLi2La3Ti6O18 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Na1+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form NaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with two equivalent NaO12 cuboctahedra, corners with five equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with four LaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.64–2.90 Å. 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 1.94–2.04 Å. There are three inequivalent La3+ sites. In the first La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form distorted LaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with two equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, corners with five equivalent NaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with four LaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight TiO6 octahedra. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.54–2.93 Å. In the second La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form distorted LaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with seven LaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent NaO12 cuboctahedra, faces with two equivalent LaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight TiO6 octahedra.

In the second Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with six TiO6 octahedra, a faceface with one NaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with five LaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 0–17°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.03 Å. In the third Ti4+ site, Ti4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form TiO6 octahedra that share corners with six TiO6 octahedra, a faceface with one NaO12 cuboctahedra, and faces with four LaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–14°. There are a spread of Ti–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.02 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Na1+, one Li1+, one La3+, and two Ti4+ atoms.
