VAu4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/m space group. V(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Au(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing VAu12 cuboctahedra. Au(1) is bonded to three equivalent V(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing AuV3 cuboctahedra.
VAu4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/m space group. V(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent Au(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing VAu12 cuboctahedra. There are eight shorter (2.86 Å) and four longer (2.90 Å) V(1)-Au(1) bond lengths. Au(1) is bonded to three equivalent V(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing AuV3 cuboctahedra.
