The material structure described by Nd3(BN2)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Immm space group. There are two inequivalent Nd sites. In the first Nd site, Nd(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to six equivalent N(1) atoms. In the second Nd site, Nd(2) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent N(1) atoms. B(1) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two equivalent N(1) atoms. N(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to two equivalent Nd(2), three equivalent Nd(1), and one B(1) atom. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
