The material structure described by KP2Te crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. There are two inequivalent K sites. In the first K site, K(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to one P(2), four equivalent P(1), one Te(1), and three equivalent Te(2) atoms. In the second K site, K(2) is bonded to one P(2), one P(3), one Te(2), and four equivalent Te(1) atoms to form distorted KTe5P2 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with four equivalent K(2)Te5P2 pentagonal bipyramids,  a cornercorner with one P(3)KTeP2 tetrahedra, corners with four equivalent P(1)K2P3 trigonal bipyramids, and edges with four equivalent K(2)Te5P2 pentagonal bipyramids. There are three inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(1) is bonded to two equivalent K(1), one P(1), one P(2), and one P(3) atom to form distorted PK2P3 trigonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent K(2)Te5P2 pentagonal bipyramids,  a cornercorner with one P(3)KTeP2 tetrahedra, corners with two equivalent P(1)K2P3 trigonal bipyramids, and edges with three equivalent P(1)K2P3 trigonal bipyramids. In the second P site, P(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one K(1), one K(2), two equivalent P(1), and one Te(1) atom. In the third P site, P(3) is bonded to one K(2), two equivalent P(1), and one Te(2) atom to form PKTeP2 tetrahedra that share  a cornercorner with one K(2)Te5P2 pentagonal bipyramid and corners with two equivalent P(1)K2P3 trigonal bipyramids. There are two inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one K(1), four equivalent K(2), and one P(2) atom. In the second Te site, Te(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one K(2), three equivalent K(1), and one P(3) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
