MgF2 is Hydrophilite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnnm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to six equivalent F1- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing MgF6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 50°. There are two shorter (2.02 Å) and four longer (2.03 Å) Mg–F bond lengths. F1- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Mg2+ atoms.
