K4U5Te2O21 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent K1+ sites. In the first K1+ site, K1+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form distorted KO6 octahedra that share corners with two equivalent UO6 octahedra, corners with four UO7 pentagonal bipyramids, and edges with two equivalent KO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 54–60°. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.69–2.87 Å. In the second K1+ site, K1+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of K–O bond distances ranging from 2.73–3.11 Å. There are three inequivalent U6+ sites. In the first U6+ site, U6+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form distorted UO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one KO6 octahedra, an edgeedge with one UO6 octahedra, and edges with two equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 60°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 1.85–2.43 Å. In the second U6+ site, U6+ is bonded to seven O2- atoms to form distorted UO7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with two equivalent UO6 octahedra, corners with three equivalent KO6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one UO7 pentagonal bipyramid, and edges with two equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 48–62°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 1.86–2.61 Å. In the third U6+ site, U6+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form UO6 octahedra that share corners with four equivalent KO6 octahedra, corners with four equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids, and edges with two equivalent UO7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 54–60°. There are a spread of U–O bond distances ranging from 1.87–2.28 Å. Te4+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three O2- atoms. There are a spread of Te–O bond distances ranging from 1.88–1.91 Å. There are eleven inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one K1+ and three U6+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three K1+ and one U6+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one K1+, one U6+, and one Te4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one K1+ and one U6+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two K1+ and one U6+ atom. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three K1+ and one U6+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three U6+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two U6+ and one Te4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two U6+ and one Te4+ atom. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two K1+ and one U6+ atom. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent U6+ atoms.
