The crystal structure described by SnI4 is Silicon tetrafluoride-like structured and crystallizes in the cubic Pa-3 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight tin(iv) iodide molecules. Sn(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one I(1) and three equivalent I(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent I sites. In the first I site, I(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sn(1) atom. In the second I site, I(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Sn(1) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
