The structure described by CoCl4(C2N)2 is Indium-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four C2N clusters and four CoCl4 clusters. In each C2N cluster, there are four inequivalent C sites. In the first C site, C(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one C(2) and one N(1) atom. In the second C site, C(2) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one C(1) and one N(2) atom. In the third C site, C(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(1) atom. In the fourth C site, C(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(2) atom. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one C(1) and one C(3) atom. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a linear geometry to one C(2) and one C(4) atom. In each CoCl4 cluster, Co(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one Cl(1), one Cl(2), one Cl(3), and one Cl(4) atom. There are four inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Co(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Co(1) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Co(1) atom. In the fourth Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Co(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
