The crystal structure described by CuTeO5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic P2_12_12_1 space group. Cu(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(2), one O(3), one O(4), and one O(5) atom to form distorted CuO5 square pyramids that share  a cornercorner with one Te(1)O5 square pyramid and edges with two equivalent Te(1)O5 square pyramids. Te(1) is bonded to one O(1), one O(3), one O(5), and two equivalent O(2) atoms to form distorted TeO5 square pyramids that share  a cornercorner with one Cu(1)O5 square pyramid, corners with two equivalent Te(1)O5 square pyramids, and edges with two equivalent Cu(1)O5 square pyramids. There are five inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Cu(1), one Te(1), and one O(4) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Cu(1) and two equivalent Te(1) atoms. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Cu(1) and one Te(1) atom. In the fourth O site, O(4) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cu(1) and one O(1) atom. In the fifth O site, O(5) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Cu(1) and one Te(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
