CdI2 is trigonal omega-like structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-3m1 space group. The structure is two-dimensional and consists of three CdI2 sheets oriented in the (0, 0, 1) direction. Cd2+ is bonded to six I1- atoms to form edge-sharing CdI6 octahedra. All Cd–I bond lengths are 3.04 Å. There are two inequivalent I1- sites. In the first I1- site, I1- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent Cd2+ atoms. In the second I1- site, I1- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three equivalent Cd2+ atoms.
