GdCrTeO6 is Hydrophilite-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-31c space group. Gd(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form GdO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cr(1)O6 octahedra and edges with three equivalent Te(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 60°. Cr(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form CrO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Gd(1)O6 octahedra and corners with six equivalent Te(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 41-60°. Te(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form TeO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Cr(1)O6 octahedra and edges with three equivalent Gd(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 41°. O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Gd(1), one Cr(1), and one Te(1) atom.
