The material described by NiP2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. Ni(1) is bonded in a square co-planar geometry to four equivalent P(1) atoms. P(1) is bonded to two equivalent Ni(1) and two equivalent P(1) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing PNi2P2 tetrahedra. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
