Nb4Te12I crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. The structure is one-dimensional and consists of four Nb4Te12I ribbons oriented in the (0, 1, 0) direction. there are two inequivalent Nb+4.75+ sites. In the first Nb+4.75+ site, Nb+4.75+ is bonded to five Te+1.50- and one I1- atom to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing NbTe5I pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Nb–Te bond distances ranging from 2.65–2.93 Å. The Nb–I bond length is 3.01 Å. In the second Nb+4.75+ site, Nb+4.75+ is bonded to five Te+1.50- and one I1- atom to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing NbTe5I pentagonal pyramids. There are a spread of Nb–Te bond distances ranging from 2.65–2.95 Å. The Nb–I bond length is 3.00 Å. There are six inequivalent Te+1.50- sites. In the first Te+1.50- site, Te+1.50- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Nb+4.75+ atom. In the second Te+1.50- site, Te+1.50- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Nb+4.75+ atoms. In the third Te+1.50- site, Te+1.50- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Nb+4.75+ atom. In the fourth Te+1.50- site, Te+1.50- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Nb+4.75+ atoms. In the fifth Te+1.50- site, Te+1.50- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Nb+4.75+ atoms. In the sixth Te+1.50- site, Te+1.50- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two Nb+4.75+ atoms. I1- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four Nb+4.75+ atoms.
