A new Mn 3+ hydrogenophosphate LiMn(H 2 P 2 O 7 ) 2 was synthesized, using a soft chemistry method. The ab initio structure resolution of this phase shows that it consists of infinite chains [MnH 4 P 4 O 14 ] ∞ , built up of corner‐sharing MnO 6 octahedra and P 2 O 5 (OH) 2 diphosphate groups. The cohesion between the chains is ensured by Li + cations and hydrogen bonds. This compound is paramagnetic and Mn 3+ is in high spin (H.S.) configuration. The impedance plots show that this hydrogenophosphate is a modest ionic conductor with activation energy of 0.8 eV and a conductivity reaching 10 –6 S · cm –1 at 320 °C.
