The structure described by BaZnCl4 is Zircon-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnna space group. Ba(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Cl(1) and four equivalent Cl(2) atoms. Zn(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to two equivalent Cl(1) and two equivalent Cl(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba(1) and one Zn(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba(1) and one Zn(1) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
