K2TeBr6 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. K(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Br(1), three equivalent Br(2), and three equivalent Br(3) atoms. Te(1) is bonded in an octahedral geometry to two equivalent Br(1), two equivalent Br(2), and two equivalent Br(3) atoms. There are three inequivalent Br sites. In the first Br site, Br(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to two equivalent K(1) and one Te(1) atom. In the second Br site, Br(2) is bonded to three equivalent K(1) and one Te(1) atom to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing BrK3Te trigonal pyramids. In the third Br site, Br(3) is bonded in a distorted see-saw-like geometry to three equivalent K(1) and one Te(1) atom.
