CoN4O3Cl2 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one CoN4O3Cl2 cluster. Co(1) is bonded to one N(1), one N(2), one N(4), and two equivalent O(1) atoms to form edge-sharing CoN3O2 trigonal bipyramids. There are four inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Co(1) and one Cl(2) atom. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Co(1), one N(3), and one Cl(1) atom. In the third N site, N(3) is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one N(2) and one O(2) atom. In the fourth N site, N(4) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Co(1) and one O(3) atom. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent Co(1) atoms. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(3) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(4) atom. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(2) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(1) atom.
