Rh(NCl3)2NO is Modderite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four nitroxyl molecules and four Rh(NCl3)2 clusters. In each Rh(NCl3)2 cluster, Rh(1) is bonded in an octahedral geometry to one Cl(1), one Cl(2), two equivalent Cl(3), and two equivalent Cl(4) atoms. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl(2) atom. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl(1) atom. There are four inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(4) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Rh(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Rh(1) and one N(2) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Rh(1) and one N(1) atom. In the fourth Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Rh(1) atom.
