The structure described by LiNO3 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Li(1) is bonded to two equivalent N(1) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form distorted face-sharing LiN2O4 octahedra. N(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li(1) and one O(2) atom. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li(1) and one O(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
