The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 44–45°. The V–V bond length is 2.57 Å. There are three shorter (2.45 Å) and two longer (2.58 Å) V–Fe bond lengths. In the second V site, V is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six Ta, three V, and three Fe atoms. There are one shorter (2.58 Å) and two longer (2.59 Å) V–V bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.47 Å) and one longer (2.49 Å) V–Fe bond lengths. In the third V site, V is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to six Ta, three V, and three Fe atoms. The V–V bond length is 2.57 Å. There are one shorter (2.46 Å) and two longer (2.48 Å) V–Fe bond lengths. There are three inequivalent Fe sites. In the first Fe site, Fe is bonded to six Ta, five V, and one Fe atom to form distorted FeTa6V5Fe cuboctahedra that share corners with three equivalent FeTa6V2Fe4 cuboctahedra, edges with six CTa6 octahedra, faces with two equivalent VTa6VFe5 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight FeTa6V5Fe cuboctahedra. The Fe–Fe bond length is 2.50 Å.
