BeTa4 is Iron carbide-like structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight BeTa4 clusters. Be(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent Ta(1) atoms. Ta(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Be(1) atom.
