TaSb3 is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fm-3m space group. Ta(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to six equivalent Sb(2) and eight equivalent Sb(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Sb sites. In the first Sb site, Sb(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Ta(1) and four equivalent Sb(2) atoms. In the second Sb site, Sb(2) is bonded in a 14-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Ta(1) and eight equivalent Sb(1) atoms.
