VCl4 is Silicon tetrafluoride-like structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four vanadium tetrachloride molecules. V(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one Cl(1), one Cl(3), one Cl(5), and one Cl(7) atom. There are four inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(5) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom. In the fourth Cl site, Cl(7) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one V(1) atom.
