LiY(CN2)2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded to six N3- atoms to form LiN6 octahedra that share edges with two equivalent LiN6 octahedra and edges with four equivalent YN6 octahedra. There are a spread of Li–N bond distances ranging from 2.29–2.59 Å. Y3+ is bonded to six N3- atoms to form YN6 octahedra that share edges with two equivalent YN6 octahedra and edges with four equivalent LiN6 octahedra. There are a spread of Y–N bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.40 Å. C4+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two N3- atoms. There is one shorter (1.22 Å) and one longer (1.24 Å) C–N bond length. There are two inequivalent N3- sites. In the first N3- site, N3- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, two equivalent Y3+, and one C4+ atom. In the second N3- site, N3- is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Li1+, one Y3+, and one C4+ atom.
