The material structure described by Nb2(CN2)3 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R32 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of three Nb2(CN2)3 clusters. Nb(1) is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent N(1) atoms. C(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N(1) atoms. N(1) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Nb(1) and one C(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
