Materials Data on Li(ClO2)2 by Materials Project

Li(O2Cl)2 is alpha Niobium phosphide-derived structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mmc space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two Li(O2Cl)2 clusters. Li is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent O atoms. All Li–O bond lengths are 2.08 Å. O is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Li and one Cl atom. The O–Cl bond length is 1.54 Å. Cl is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent O atoms.
