Mg(VS2)2 is Spinel structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to four equivalent S2- atoms to form MgS4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent VS6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 53–62°. All Mg–S bond lengths are 2.43 Å. V3+ is bonded to six equivalent S2- atoms to form VS6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent MgS4 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent VS6 octahedra. There are four shorter (2.45 Å) and two longer (2.46 Å) V–S bond lengths. S2- is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Mg2+ and three equivalent V3+ atoms.
