TeMo6 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmce space group. There are two inequivalent Mo sites. In the first Mo site, Mo(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mo(1) and two equivalent Te(1) atoms. In the second Mo site, Mo(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Mo(2) atoms. Te(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Mo(2) atoms.
TeMo6 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmce space group. There are two inequivalent Mo sites. In the first Mo site, Mo(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mo(1) and two equivalent Te(1) atoms. There are a spread of Mo(2)-Mo(1) bond distances ranging from 2.65-2.73 Å. There is one shorter (2.83 Å) and one longer (2.84 Å) Mo(2)-Te(1) bond length. In the second Mo site, Mo(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Mo(2) atoms. Te(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Mo(2) atoms.
