K2IrNH3Cl5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. K(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cl(1), two equivalent Cl(2), two equivalent Cl(3), and two equivalent Cl(4) atoms. Ir(1) is bonded in an octahedral geometry to one N(1), one Cl(1), one Cl(3), one Cl(4), and two equivalent Cl(2) atoms. N(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Ir(1), one H(2), and two equivalent H(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent H sites. In the first H site, H(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(1) atom. In the second H site, H(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(1) atom. There are four inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent K(1) and one Ir(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent K(1) and one Ir(1) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(4) is bonded to four equivalent K(1) and one Ir(1) atom to form distorted corner-sharing ClK4Ir square pyramids. In the fourth Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent K(1) and one Ir(1) atom.
