YCo2Cl crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. Y(1) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Co(1), one Co(2), and three equivalent Cl(1) atoms. The Y(1)-Co(1) bond length is 2.85 Å. The Y(1)-Co(2) bond length is 1.74 Å. There is one shorter (3.04 Å) and two longer (3.45 Å) Y(1)-Cl(1) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent Co sites. In the first Co site, Co(1) is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Y(1) and one Cl(1) atom. The Co(1)-Cl(1) bond length is 2.92 Å. In the second Co site, Co(2) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Y(1) and one Cl(1) atom. The Co(2)-Cl(1) bond length is 2.74 Å. Cl(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Y(1), one Co(1), and one Co(2) atom.
