GaC2NCl4 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of four GaC2NCl4 clusters. Ga(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to one Cl(1), one Cl(3), and two equivalent Cl(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent C sites. In the first C site, C(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one N(1) atom. In the second C site, C(2) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one N(1) and two equivalent Cl(2) atoms. N(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one C(1) and one C(2) atom. There are three inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga(1) atom. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one Ga(1) and one C(2) atom. In the third Cl site, Cl(3) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Ga(1) atom.
