LiAsTe2 crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three equivalent As(1), one Te(2), and three equivalent Te(1) atoms. All Li(1)-As(1) bond lengths are 2.99 Å. The Li(1)-Te(2) bond length is 2.30 Å. All Li(1)-Te(1) bond lengths are 3.32 Å. As(1) is bonded to three equivalent Li(1), one Te(1), and one Te(2) atom to form corner-sharing AsLi3Te2 trigonal bipyramids. The As(1)-Te(1) bond length is 2.30 Å. The As(1)-Te(2) bond length is 2.30 Å. There are two inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Li(1), one As(1), and three equivalent Te(2) atoms. All Te(1)-Te(2) bond lengths are 2.99 Å. In the second Te site, Te(2) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Li(1), one As(1), and three equivalent Te(1) atoms.
