LaWCl2 is alpha Niobium phosphide-derived structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one LaWCl2 cluster. La(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one W(1) and one Cl(1) atom. The La(1)-W(1) bond length is 3.07 Å. The La(1)-Cl(1) bond length is 3.11 Å. W(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one La(1), one Cl(1), and one Cl(2) atom. The W(1)-Cl(1) bond length is 1.12 Å. The W(1)-Cl(2) bond length is 1.12 Å. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one La(1), one W(1), and one Cl(2) atom. The Cl(1)-Cl(2) bond length is 0.34 Å. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one W(1) and one Cl(1) atom.
