From Wikipedia:
"YCl3 in the solid state has a crystal structure with cubic close packed chloride ions and yttrium ions filling one third of the octahedral holes and the resulting YCl6 octahedra sharing three edges with adjacent octahedra give a layer structure. This structure is shared by a range of compounds notably AlCl3."
