MgH2 is Hydrophilite-like structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcn space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Mg2+ is bonded to six equivalent H1- atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing MgH6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 52–53°. There are a spread of Mg–H bond distances ranging from 1.91–2.01 Å. H1- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Mg2+ atoms.
