The structure described by V2Ni(TeO5)2 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. V(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one O(2), one O(5), two equivalent O(1), and two equivalent O(4) atoms. Ni(1) is bonded in an octahedral geometry to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms. Te(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one O(4), one O(5), and two equivalent O(3) atoms. There are five inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent V(1) and one Ni(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one V(1) and one Ni(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Ni(1) and two equivalent Te(1) atoms. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent V(1) and one Te(1) atom. In the fifth O site, O(5) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one V(1) and one Te(1) atom. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
