ICl is beta Np structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four ICl clusters. There are two inequivalent I sites. In the first I site, I(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Cl(1) and one Cl(2) atom. In the second I site, I(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Cl(2) atom. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one I(1) and one I(2) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one I(1) atom.
