Cs2TeCl6 crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. Cs(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form CsCl12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent Te(1)Cl6 octahedra. Te(1) is bonded to six equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form TeCl6 octahedra that share faces with eight equivalent Cs(1)Cl12 cuboctahedra. Cl(1) is bonded to four equivalent Cs(1) and one Te(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted edge, face, and corner-sharing ClCs4Te square pyramids.
