LiNd14(Cu3O14)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four O2- atoms. There are two shorter (2.07 Å) and two longer (2.08 Å) Li–O bond lengths. There are four inequivalent Nd3+ sites. In the first Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are four shorter (2.34 Å) and four longer (2.71 Å) Nd–O bond lengths. In the second Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Nd–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.71 Å. In the third Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Nd–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.71 Å. In the fourth Nd3+ site, Nd3+ is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight O2- atoms. There are a spread of Nd–O bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.71 Å. There are three inequivalent Cu+2.17+ sites. In the first Cu+2.17+ site, Cu+2.17+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.90–2.03 Å. In the second Cu+2.17+ site, Cu+2.17+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.02 Å. In the third Cu+2.17+ site, Cu+2.17+ is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cu–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.00 Å. There are twelve inequivalent O2- sites.
