The structures of the Magnéli-phases VnO2n1 (3 ≤ n ≤ 7) are reviewed with respect to their structural relationships to rutile-type VO2. The general expressions for the transformation matrices P and Q = P1 are derived allowing the prediction of lattice parameters and atomic coordinates for hypothetical structures of VnO2n1 with n ≥ 8.
