Li2B4O7 crystal structure was studied at elevated temperatures and refined in anharmonic approximation: 20 °C, a = 9.475(3), c = 10.283(6) Å, 883 F(h k l), R = 0.015; 200 °C, a = 9.501(3), c = 10.275(6) Å, 826 F(h k l), R = 0.021; 400 °C, a = 9.535(3), c = 10.295(8) Å, 809 F(h k l), R = 0.022; and 500 °C, a = 9.550(3), c = 10.295(6) Å, 779 F(h k l), R = 0.029. BO bond lengths were corrected in a view of O and B atomic vibrations. Refinement of anharmonic components of atomic temperature factors has revealed high asymmetry of Li thermal vibrations. The behaviour of tetraborate groups was studied. A stability of rigid BO groups configuration was indicated, as in the case of βCsB5O8, LiB3O5 and β-Na2B8O13, studied by us earlier. The boron–oxygen framework expands as a three-dimensional hinge; BOB and OBO angles inside tetraborate groups practically do not change, while B1O1B2 angles between the groups increase to 1.6° on heating up to 500 °C due to O1 atoms shifts letting Li atom to fall through oxygen atoms along c-axis causing the contraction in this direction.
