Materials Data on Li7Ga6 by Materials Project

(Li)2Li5Ga4(Ga)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmmm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four gallium molecules, four lithium molecules, and two Li5Ga4 clusters. In each Li5Ga4 cluster, there are two inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga atom. The Li–Ga bond length is 2.62 Å. In the second Li site, Li is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four equivalent Ga atoms. All Li–Ga bond lengths are 2.83 Å. Ga is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two Li and one Ga atom. The Ga–Ga bond length is 2.43 Å.
