AlF3 is alpha Rhenium trioxide-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P321 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Al3+ sites. In the first Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to six equivalent F1- atoms to form corner-sharing AlF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 3°. All Al–F bond lengths are 1.82 Å. In the second Al3+ site, Al3+ is bonded to six F1- atoms to form corner-sharing AlF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 3–8°. All Al–F bond lengths are 1.82 Å. There are two inequivalent F1- sites. In the first F1- site, F1- is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent Al3+ atoms. In the second F1- site, F1- is bonded in a linear geometry to two Al3+ atoms.
