Neodymium(II) fluoride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula NdF₂. It can be obtained by shock compression of neodymium(III) fluoride and neodymium at 1000 °C and above 200 kbar.{{cite journal|title=Shock synthesis of light rare earth metal difluorides|language=ru|last1=Batsanov |first1=S.
