The structure described by Ni2(CN2)3 crystallizes in the trigonal R32 space group. Ni(1) is bonded to six equivalent N(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing NiN6 pentagonal pyramids. C(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N(1) atoms. N(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ni(1) and one C(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
