The material structure described by Li2MnP2O7 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. There are two inequivalent Li sites. In the first Li site, Li(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(4), and two equivalent O(3) atoms to form LiO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two equivalent Mn(1)O6 octahedra,  a cornercorner with one P(1)O4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent P(2)O4 tetrahedra,  an edgeedge with one Mn(1)O6 octahedra, and  an edgeedge with one Li(1)O4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 66-80°. In the second Li site, Li(2) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one O(2), one O(5), and one O(7) atom. Mn(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), one O(3), one O(4), one O(5), and one O(7) atom to form distorted MnO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent Li(1)O4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent P(1)O4 tetrahedra, corners with three equivalent P(2)O4 tetrahedra, and  an edgeedge with one Li(1)O4 tetrahedra. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), one O(6), and one O(7) atom to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Mn(1)O6 octahedra,  a cornercorner with one Li(1)O4 tetrahedra, and  a cornercorner with one P(2)O4 tetrahedra.

In the second P site, P(2) is bonded to one O(3), one O(4), one O(5), and one O(6) atom to form PO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three equivalent Mn(1)O6 octahedra,  a cornercorner with one P(1)O4 tetrahedra, and corners with three equivalent Li(1)O4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 33-58°. There are seven inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Li(1), one Mn(1), and one P(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Li(2), one Mn(1), and one P(1) atom.
