Intermolecular scattering functions of liquid GeCl4 at 233 and 295 K and of liquid VCl4 at 295 K are determined by thermal neutron diffraction. Reference interaction site model (RISM) calculations with σCl =0.34 nm show good general correspondence with the experimental data. The RISM describes in much detail the difference between the two intermolecular scattering functions of GeCl4 at different thermodynamic states. The results for VCl4 are compared to experimental results by Gibson and Dore and to molecular dynamics calculations by Murad and Gubbins. The intermolecular scattering functions are tabulated.
