RhI2 is Rutile structured and crystallizes in the tetragonal P4_2/mnm space group. Rh(1) is bonded to six equivalent I(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing RhI6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 50°. I(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Rh(1) atoms.

The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 50°. There are four shorter (2.74 Å) and two longer (2.76 Å) Rh(1)-I(1) bond lengths. I(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent Rh(1) atoms.
