SrTaCl4 crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. Sr(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Ta(1), three equivalent Cl(1), and three equivalent Cl(2) atoms. The Sr(1)-Ta(1) bond length is 1.83 Å. All Sr(1)-Cl(1) bond lengths are 3.42 Å. All Sr(1)-Cl(2) bond lengths are 3.49 Å. Ta(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Sr(1) and three equivalent Cl(1) atoms. All Ta(1)-Cl(1) bond lengths are 1.59 Å. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Sr(1) and three equivalent Cl(1) atoms. All Cl(2)-Cl(1) bond lengths are 1.24 Å. In the second Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted pentagonal planar geometry to one Sr(1), one Ta(1), one Cl(2), and two equivalent Cl(1) atoms. Both Cl(1)-Cl(1) bond lengths are 0.72 Å.
