V5S4 is Titanium telluride structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/m space group. There are two inequivalent V sites. In the first V site, V(1) is bonded to five equivalent S(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing VS5 square pyramids. In the second V site, V(2) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent S(1) atoms. S(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one V(2) and five equivalent V(1) atoms.

In the first V site, V(1) is bonded to five equivalent S(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing VS5 square pyramids. There are a spread of V(1)-S(1) bond distances ranging from 2.32-2.41 Å. In the second V site, V(2) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent S(1) atoms. All V(2)-S(1) bond lengths are 2.49 Å. S(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one V(2) and five equivalent V(1) atoms.
