ScSn3Te is alpha Po structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of three ScSn3Te clusters. Sc(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sn(1) atoms. All Sc(1)-Sn(1) bond lengths are 1.14 Å. Sn(1) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Sc(1) and one Te(1) atom. The Sn(1)-Te(1) bond length is 0.81 Å. Te(1) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent Sn(1) atoms.
