The material described by Hg3Ga2Cl8 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four Hg3Ga2Cl8 clusters. There are three inequivalent Hg sites. In the first Hg site, Hg(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Hg(2) and one Hg(3) atom. In the second Hg site, Hg(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Hg(1) and one Cl(3) atom. In the third Hg site, Hg(3) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Hg(1) and one Cl(6) atom. There are two inequivalent Ga sites. In the first Ga site, Ga(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one Cl(1), one Cl(2), one Cl(3), and one Cl(4) atom. In the second Ga site, Ga(2) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one Cl(5), one Cl(6), one Cl(7), and one Cl(8) atom. There are eight inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(5) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga(2) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(6) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Hg(3) and one Ga(2) atom. In the fourth Cl site, Cl(7) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga(2) atom. In the fifth Cl site, Cl(8) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga(2) atom. In the sixth Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga(1) atom. In the seventh Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga(1) atom. In the eighth Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Hg(2) and one Ga(1) atom. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
