CoN3ClN5Cl is Indium-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four CoN3Cl clusters and four N5Cl clusters. In each CoN3Cl cluster, Co(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one N(4), one N(6), and one N(7) atom. There are three inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Co(1) atom. In the second N site, N(6) is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to one Co(1) and one Cl(2) atom. In the third N site, N(7) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Co(1) atom. Cl(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(6) atom. In each N5Cl cluster, there are five inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(8) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one N(5) and one Cl(1) atom. In the second N site, N(1) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one N(2) and one N(5) atom. In the third N site, N(2) is bonded in a linear geometry to one N(1) and one N(3) atom. In the fourth N site, N(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(2) atom. In the fifth N site, N(5) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one N(1) and one N(8) atom. Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(8) atom.
