The structure described by LiNi(CO3)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1 space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one O(1), one O(2), one O(4), one O(5), and one O(6) atom. Ni(1) is bonded in an octahedral geometry to one O(1), one O(2), one O(3), one O(4), one O(5), and one O(6) atom. There are two inequivalent C sites. In the first C site, C(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one O(1), one O(2), and one O(3) atom. In the second C site, C(2) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one O(4), one O(5), and one O(6) atom. There are six inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li(1), one Ni(1), and one C(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Li(1), one Ni(1), and one C(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Ni(1) and one C(1) atom. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to one Li(1), one Ni(1), and one C(2) atom. In the fifth O site, O(5) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li(1), one Ni(1), and one C(2) atom. In the sixth O site, O(6) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Li(1), one Ni(1), and one C(2) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
