CuCr2Te4 is Spinel structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. Cr(1) is bonded to six equivalent Te(1) atoms to form CrTe6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cu(1)Te4 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent Cr(1)Te6 octahedra. Cu(1) is bonded to four equivalent Te(1) atoms to form CuTe4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Cr(1)Te6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 57°. Te(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to three equivalent Cr(1) and one Cu(1) atom.
