Abstract The crystal structures of LiGaCl 4 and LiGaI 4 have been determined by single crystal X-ray methods. Both compounds are isotypic with LiAlCl 4 and characterized by LiX 6 octahedra and GaX 4 tetrahedra. Mean bond lengths are: d̄(Ga-X) = 217.4 pm (Cl) and 255.9 pm (I); d̄(Li-X) = 263.9 pm (Cl) and 305.3 pm (I), respectively. Common features of the isotypic compounds LiGaX 4 (X = Cl, Br. I) are discussed.
