ZnBiCl2 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one ZnBiCl2 cluster. Zn(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Bi(1), one Cl(1), and one Cl(2) atom. The Zn(1)-Bi(1) bond length is 1.12 Å. The Zn(1)-Cl(1) bond length is 1.77 Å. The Zn(1)-Cl(2) bond length is 1.66 Å. Bi(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Zn(1) and one Cl(1) atom. The Bi(1)-Cl(1) bond length is 1.66 Å. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Zn(1), one Bi(1), and one Cl(2) atom. The Cl(1)-Cl(2) bond length is 1.12 Å. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Zn(1) and one Cl(1) atom.
