V5Sb4 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 eight equivalent V(2) and four equivalent Sb(1) atoms to form face-sharing VV8Sb4 cuboctahedra. In the second V site, V(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent V(1) and five equivalent Sb(1) atoms. Sb(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one V(1) and five equivalent V(2) atoms.

In the first V site, V(1) is bonded to eight equivalent V(2) and four equivalent Sb(1) atoms to form face-sharing VV8Sb4 cuboctahedra. All V(1)-V(2) bond lengths are 2.73 Å. All V(1)-Sb(1) bond lengths are 2.91 Å. In the second V site, V(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent V(1) and five equivalent Sb(1) atoms. There are a spread of V(2)-Sb(1) bond distances ranging from 2.67-2.71 Å. Sb(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one V(1) and five equivalent V(2) atoms.
