Zn2Cl5O2 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure consists of two 7782-44-7 molecules inside a Zn2Cl5 framework. In the Zn2Cl5 framework, there are four inequivalent Zn sites. In the first Zn site, Zn(1) is bonded to one Cl(1), one Cl(4), one Cl(5), and one Cl(9) atom to form corner-sharing ZnCl4 tetrahedra. In the second Zn site, Zn(2) is bonded to one Cl(2), one Cl(3), one Cl(6), and one Cl(9) atom to form corner-sharing ZnCl4 tetrahedra. In the third Zn site, Zn(3) is bonded to one Cl(10), one Cl(2), one Cl(3), and one Cl(7) atom to form corner-sharing ZnCl4 tetrahedra. In the fourth Zn site, Zn(4) is bonded to one Cl(1), one Cl(10), one Cl(4), and one Cl(8) atom to form corner-sharing ZnCl4 tetrahedra. There are ten inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Zn(1) and one Zn(4) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Zn(2) and one Zn(3) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Zn(2) and one Zn(3) atom. In the fourth Cl site, Cl(4) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Zn(1) and one Zn(4) atom. In the fifth Cl site, Cl(5) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Zn(1) atom. In the sixth Cl site, Cl(6) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Zn(2) atom. In the seventh Cl site, Cl(7) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Zn(3) atom. In the eighth Cl site, Cl(8) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Zn(4) atom. In the ninth Cl site, Cl(9) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Zn(1) and one Zn(2) atom. In the tenth Cl site, Cl(10) is bonded in a water-like geometry to one Zn(3) and one Zn(4) atom.
