A post spinel transition of LiMn 2 O 4 was recently found at 6 GPa. The high‐pressure form crystallizes into a double chain‐type structure, isostructural with CaFe 2 O 4 (orthorhombic; Pnma). The orthorhombic unit cell parameters were found anisotropically dependent on the heating condition; it varies ∼0.5% while less than ∼0.1% along the chain direction, probably reflecting nature of the anisotropic structure basis. The form is magnetic due to the chain arrangement of the Mn magnetic moments and a magnetically glassy feature was found at ∼10 K being similar with what was found for the spinel‐type LiMn 2 O 4 at ∼25 K.
