The crystal structure described by Mn(CdN)3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. Mn(1) is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one N(2) and two equivalent N(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Cd sites. In the first Cd site, Cd(1) is bonded in a see-saw-like geometry to one N(2) and three equivalent N(1) atoms. In the second Cd site, Cd(2) is bonded in a see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent N(1) and two equivalent N(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded to one Mn(1), one Cd(2), and three equivalent Cd(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing NMnCd4 trigonal bipyramids. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded to one Mn(1), two equivalent Cd(1), and two equivalent Cd(2) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing NMnCd4 trigonal bipyramids. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
