VAl2 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one VAl2 cluster. V(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Al(1) atom. The V(1)-Al(1) bond length is 0.52 Å. There are two inequivalent Al sites. In the first Al site, Al(1) is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one V(1) and one Al(2) atom. The Al(1)-Al(2) bond length is 0.40 Å. In the second Al site, Al(2) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Al(1) atom.
