BaZnCl4 is Zircon-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Cl1- atoms. There are a spread of Ba–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.21–3.25 Å. Zn2+ is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four Cl1- atoms. There are two shorter (2.29 Å) and two longer (2.31 Å) Zn–Cl bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+ and one Zn2+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Ba2+ and one Zn2+ atom.
