MgBr2 is trigonal omega structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-3m1 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of one MgBr2 sheet oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Mg2+ is bonded to six equivalent Br1- atoms to form edge-sharing MgBr6 octahedra. All Mg–Br bond lengths are 2.70 Å. Br1- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent Mg2+ atoms.
