The material structure described by Nd(O2Cl)3 crystallizes in the monoclinic P2/c space group. Nd(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(2), two equivalent O(3), and four equivalent O(1) atoms. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Nd(1) and one Cl(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Nd(1) and one O(2) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Nd(1) and one Cl(2) atom. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one O(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent O(3) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
