The crystal structure described by U2O2Cl5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmmm space group. U(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), one Cl(2), and four equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing UCl5O2 pentagonal bipyramids. O(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent U(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent U(1) atoms. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent U(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
