Ba3(OCl)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Ba2+ sites. In the first Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent O2- and one Cl1- atom. There are two shorter (2.59 Å) and two longer (2.61 Å) Ba–O bond lengths. The Ba–Cl bond length is 3.46 Å. In the second Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent O2- and two Cl1- atoms. Both Ba–O bond lengths are 2.41 Å. There are one shorter (3.22 Å) and one longer (3.27 Å) Ba–Cl bond lengths. In the third Ba2+ site, Ba2+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O2- and five Cl1- atoms. Both Ba–O bond lengths are 2.48 Å. There are a spread of Ba–Cl bond distances ranging from 3.33–3.58 Å. O2- is bonded to four Ba2+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing OBa4 tetrahedra. There are two inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five Ba2+ atoms. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three Ba2+ atoms.
