Ti4Ni4Si7 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Ti3+ sites. In the first Ti3+ site, Ti3+ is bonded to seven Si+2.86- atoms to form TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with eight equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, corners with eight TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, an edgeedge with one TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramid, faces with four equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, and faces with six TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 40–52°. There are a spread of Ti–Si bond distances ranging from 2.57–2.77 Å. In the second Ti3+ site, Ti3+ is bonded to seven Si+2.86- atoms to form distorted TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids that share corners with eight equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, corners with eight TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, edges with three equivalent TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids, faces with four equivalent NiSi6 octahedra, and faces with six TiSi7 pentagonal bipyramids. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 40–51°. There are a spread of Ti–Si bond distances ranging from 2.57–2.87 Å.
