The compound described by LiGaW2O8 is Hydrophilite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2/c space group. Li(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(3) and four equivalent O(4) atoms to form LiO6 octahedra that share corners with eight equivalent W(1)O6 octahedra and edges with two equivalent Li(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 44-58°. W(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(4), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms to form distorted WO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent Li(1)O6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent Ga(1)O6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent W(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 44-58°. Ga(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form GaO6 octahedra that share corners with eight equivalent W(1)O6 octahedra and edges with two equivalent Ga(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 50-52°. There are four inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one W(1) and two equivalent Ga(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent W(1) and one Ga(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Li(1) and two equivalent W(1) atoms. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to two equivalent Li(1) and one W(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
