Li(VO2)3(TeO3)2.
The title compound, lithium tris[dioxidovanadium(V)] bis[trioxidotellurium(IV)], contains chains of edge-sharing distorted VO(6) octahedra. The pyramidal TeO(3) groups crosslink the chains into sheets. Finally, an Li(+) cation adopting an unusual capped trigonal-bipyramidal LiO(6) geometry bridges the layers to complete a three-dimensional structure.
