Relationship of the TeF4 structure to the α- and γ-ZrF4 structures via anionic bridging. (a) A classical representation of the (001) TeF4 structure with zigzag chains of TeF5 polyhedra sharing corners. (b) The TeF5+3 dodeca­hedron in TeF4. The orientation of the electron lone pair of Te4+ is represented as an arrow. (c) The (001) plane in the TeF4 structure, showing a 44 cationic plane net, for comparison with the homologous (001) plane in γ-ZrF4 (Fig. 2[link]). (d) The ([\overline{1}]10) plane in the TeF4 structure showing a distorted 32.4.3.4 cationic plane net and the anionic bridging via F4 corners, for comparison with the homologous plane in α-ZrF4 (Fig. 5[link]b).
