UTeS crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. U(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Te(1) and four equivalent S(1) atoms. Te(1) is bonded to five equivalent U(1) atoms to form distorted TeU5 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with eight equivalent S(1)U4 tetrahedra, corners with eight equivalent Te(1)U5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with six equivalent S(1)U4 tetrahedra, and edges with six equivalent Te(1)U5 trigonal bipyramids. S(1) is bonded to four equivalent U(1) atoms to form SU4 tetrahedra that share corners with eight equivalent S(1)U4 tetrahedra, corners with eight equivalent Te(1)U5 trigonal bipyramids, edges with two equivalent S(1)U4 tetrahedra, and edges with six equivalent Te(1)U5 trigonal bipyramids.
