Nd2MnGaO6 is Orthorhombic Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. Nd(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(3), three equivalent O(1), and three equivalent O(2) atoms. Mn(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Ga(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 30-31°. Ga(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(1), two equivalent O(2), and two equivalent O(3) atoms to form GaO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mn(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 30-31°. There are three inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Nd(1), one Mn(1), and one Ga(1) atom. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Nd(1), one Mn(1), and one Ga(1) atom. In the third O site, O(3) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Nd(1), one Mn(1), and one Ga(1) atom.
