Title: Materials Data on GaCl3 by Materials Project

Abstract

GaCl3 is Copper structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two GaCl3 clusters. Ga3+ is bonded to four Cl1- atoms to form edge-sharing GaCl4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Ga–Cl bond distances ranging from 2.12–2.34 Å. There are three inequivalent Cl1- sites. In the first Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga3+ atom. In the second Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to two equivalent Ga3+ atoms. In the third Cl1- site, Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga3+ atom.
