Ga P Cl Cl
GaPCl2 is Cyanogen Chloride-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two GaPCl2 clusters. Ga(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one P(1) atom. The Ga(1)-P(1) bond length is 1.41 Å. P(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Ga(1) and one Cl(2) atom. The P(1)-Cl(2) bond length is 2.00 Å. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl(2) atom. The Cl(1)-Cl(2) bond length is 1.94 Å. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one P(1) and one Cl(1) atom.
