Bi2MgO4 is Spinel structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. Mg(1) is bonded to four equivalent O(1) atoms to form MgO4 tetrahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Bi(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 55°. Bi(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form BiO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mg(1)O4 tetrahedra and edges with six equivalent Bi(1)O6 octahedra. O(1) is bonded in a rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one Mg(1) and three equivalent Bi(1) atoms.
