BCl3 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/m space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two boron trichloride molecules. B3+ is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Cl1- atoms. All B–Cl bond lengths are 1.74 Å. Cl1- is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B3+ atom.
BCl2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbca space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight dichloroborane molecules. B is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent Cl atoms. There is one shorter (1.74 Å) and one longer (1.75 Å) B–Cl bond length. Cl is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B atom.
BCl is Cubane-like structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/nmc space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight chloroborane molecules. B is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one Cl atom. The B–Cl bond length is 1.73 Å. Cl is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one B atom.
