Abstract: The crystal structure of monoclinic tripotassium indium(III) hexachloride, K₃[InCl₆], obtained by the solvent evaporation method, has been determined from single-crystal X-ray diffraction data. The crystal structure is characterized by isolated [InCl₆] octahedra located in the centre of the cell and at the centre of each of the edges of the cell, linked with K⁺ cations to form a three-dimensional structure.
