MoCl5PCl4 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two [pcl4]+1 molecules and one MoCl5 cluster. In the MoCl5 cluster, Mo4+ is bonded to six Cl1- atoms to form edge-sharing MoCl6 octahedra. There are a spread of Mo–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.34–2.51 Å. There are five inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent Mo4+ atoms. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Mo4+ atom. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Mo4+ atom. In the fourth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Mo4+ atom. In the fifth Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Mo4+ atom.
