The electronic structure of MgC₂ has been studied within the self-consistent field approximation using expansion basis sets ranging up to triple zeta plus double polarization in size. The ground state is predicted to be an ionic, Mg⁺C₂^-, symmetric triangular structure. A metastable linear MgCC structure is predicted to lie about 20 kcal/mol higher in energy. Rotation constants and harmonic vibrational force constants are given. The possibility of observing MgC₂ in astrophysical sources is briefly discussed.
