The material described by LiGdCl4 is Zircon-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/a space group. Li(1) is bonded in a distorted tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent Cl(1) atoms. Gd(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Cl(1) atoms. Cl(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Li(1) and two equivalent Gd(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
