Lithium permanganate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula LiMnO4. It can be produced by the reaction of lithium sulfate and barium permanganate, and the trihydrate LiMnO4·3H2O can be crystallized from the solution. It decomposes violently at 199 °C{{Cite journal |date=May 2006 |title=Zhurnal Neorganicheskoi Khimii (Inorganic Chemistry) is 50 |url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1134/s0036023606050287 |journal=Russian Journal of Inorganic Chemistry |volume=51 |issue=5 |pages=844–845 |doi=10.1134/s0036023606050287 |s2cid=189775040 |issn=0036-0236|url-access=subscription }} to a mixture of spinel salts:{{cite journal|journal=Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry|volume=16|issue=5|language=en|issn=1432-8488|date=May 2012|pages=1993–1998|doi=10.1007/s10008-011-1603-5|url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/s10008-011-1603-5|title=Formation of spinel structured compounds in the lithium permanganate thermal decomposition|accessdate=2020-06-21|author=Alexander A.
