OsCl6(IrN5Cl2)2 is Indium-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two hexachloro osmium molecules and four IrN5Cl2 clusters. In each IrN5Cl2 cluster, Ir(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one N(1), two equivalent N(2), two equivalent N(3), and one Cl(2) atom. There are three inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ir(1) atom. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ir(1) atom. In the third N site, N(3) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Ir(1) and one Cl(5) atom. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(5) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent N(3) atoms. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ir(1) atom.
