GaAlCl4 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four GaAlCl4 clusters. Ga(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Cl(2) and one Cl(3) atom. Al(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one Cl(1), one Cl(2), one Cl(3), and one Cl(4) atom. There are four inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Al(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Ga(1) and one Al(1) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Ga(1) and one Al(1) atom. In the fourth Cl site, Cl(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Al(1) atom.
