TbO2Cl crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. Tb(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O(1), three equivalent O(2), and three equivalent Cl(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Tb(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three equivalent Tb(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms. Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Tb(1) atoms.
TbO2Cl crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/m space group. Tb(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent O(1), three equivalent O(2), and three equivalent Cl(1) atoms. There are two shorter (2.22 Å) and one longer (2.34 Å) Tb(1)-O(1) bond length. There is one shorter (2.32 Å) and two longer (2.72 Å) Tb(1)-O(2) bond lengths. There are two shorter (2.81 Å) and one longer (2.91 Å) Tb(1)-Cl(1) bond length. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Tb(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to three equivalent Tb(1) and two equivalent O(2) atoms. Both O(2)-O(2) bond lengths are 1.90 Å. Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to three equivalent Tb(1) atoms.
