RuN3OCl2NOCl is Indium-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pna2_1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four nitrosyl chloride molecules and four RuN3OCl2 clusters. In each RuN3OCl2 cluster, Ru(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one N(2), one N(3), one N(4), and one O(2) atom. There are three inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(2) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ru(1) and one Cl(1) atom. In the second N site, N(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ru(1) atom. In the third N site, N(4) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ru(1) and one Cl(2) atom. O(2) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ru(1) 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(4) atom.
