The material structure described by Mg2CdN2 crystallizes in the cubic P-43m space group. Mg(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one Cd(2) and one N(1) atom. There are two inequivalent Cd sites. In the first Cd site, Cd(1) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent N(1) atoms. In the second Cd site, Cd(2) is bonded in a tetrahedral geometry to four equivalent Mg(1) atoms. N(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Mg(1) and one Cd(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
