LiMgN crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent N(1) atoms. Mg(1) is bonded to four equivalent N(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing MgN4 tetrahedra. N(1) is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Li(1) and four equivalent Mg(1) atoms.
