The structure described by RuTe7I6 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one RuTe7I6 cluster. Ru(1) is bonded to one Te(1), one Te(4), one Te(6), one Te(7), and two equivalent Te(5) atoms to form edge-sharing RuTe6 octahedra. There are seven inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ru(1), one Te(2), and one Te(3) atom. In the second Te site, Te(2) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Te(1), one Te(4), one Te(5), and one I(4) atom. In the third Te site, Te(3) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Te(1), one Te(4), one Te(5), one I(1), and one I(6) atom. In the fourth Te site, Te(4) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Ru(1), one Te(2), and one Te(3) atom. In the fifth Te site, Te(5) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Ru(1), one Te(2), and one Te(3) atom. In the sixth Te site, Te(6) is bonded to one Ru(1), one I(1), one I(2), one I(3), and one I(4) atom to form face-sharing TeRuI4 square pyramids. In the seventh Te site, Te(7) is bonded to one Ru(1), one I(2), one I(3), one I(5), and one I(6) atom to form distorted face-sharing TeRuI4 square pyramids. There are six inequivalent I sites. In the first I site, I(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Te(3) and one Te(6) atom. In the second I site, I(2) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Te(6) and one Te(7) atom. In the third I site, I(3) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Te(6) and one Te(7) atom. In the fourth I site, I(4) is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to one Te(2) and one Te(6) atom. In the fifth I site, I(5) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Te(7) atom. In the sixth I site, I(6) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Te(3) and one Te(7) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
