The structure described by K(ThTe3)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. K(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Te(3) and four equivalent Te(4) atoms. There are two inequivalent Th sites. In the first Th site, Th(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Te(1), two equivalent Te(2), and four equivalent Te(3) atoms. In the second Th site, Th(2) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Te(1), two equivalent Te(2), and four equivalent Te(4) atoms. There are four inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te(1) is bonded to two equivalent Th(1) and two equivalent Th(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing TeTh4 trigonal pyramids. In the second Te site, Te(2) is bonded to two equivalent Th(1) and two equivalent Th(2) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing TeTh4 trigonal pyramids. In the third Te site, Te(3) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K(1), two equivalent Th(1), and two equivalent Te(3) atoms. In the fourth Te site, Te(4) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K(1), two equivalent Th(2), and two equivalent Te(4) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
