Materials Data on PaCl4 by Materials Project
PaCl4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Pa4+ is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight equivalent Cl1- atoms. There are four shorter (2.68 Å) and four longer (2.93 Å) Pa–Cl bond lengths. Cl1- is bonded in a distorted water-like geometry to two equivalent Pa4+ atoms.
