NdCl4N2Cl crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is three-dimensional and consists of four N2Cl clusters and one NdCl4 framework. In each N2Cl cluster, N1+ is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl1- atom. The N–Cl bond length is 1.53 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent N1+ atoms. In the NdCl4 framework, Nd3+ is bonded to seven Cl1- atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing NdCl7 pentagonal bipyramids. There are a spread of Nd–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.62–3.35 Å. There are three inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent Nd3+ atoms. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Nd3+ atom. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Nd3+ atoms.
