The structure described by GaCl3 is Copper structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one GaCl3 cluster. Ga(1) is bonded to one Cl(2), one Cl(3), and two equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form edge-sharing GaCl4 tetrahedra. There are three inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Ga(1) atoms. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga(1) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga(1) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
