VF5 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmce space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four VF5 clusters. V(1) is bonded to one F(2), one F(4), two equivalent F(1), and two equivalent F(3) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing VF6 octahedra. There are four inequivalent F sites. In the first F site, F(1) is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent V(1) atoms. In the second F site, F(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom. In the third F site, F(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom. In the fourth F site, F(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom.
