The material structure described by Mg(SnO2)2 is Spinel structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. Mg(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) atoms to form MgO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Sn(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 56°. Sn(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form SnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mg(1)O4 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent Sn(1)O6 octahedra. O(1) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Mg(1) and three equivalent Sn(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
