WGe2 is Cotunnite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. W(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ge(1) and five equivalent Ge(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent W(1), two equivalent Ge(1), and two equivalent Ge(2) atoms. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to five equivalent W(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms.
WGe2 is Cotunnite structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. W(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ge(1) and five equivalent Ge(2) atoms. There are a spread of W(1)-Ge(1) bond distances ranging from 2.58-2.70 Å. There are a spread of W(1)-Ge(2) bond distances ranging from 2.67-2.83 Å. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent W(1), two equivalent Ge(1), and two equivalent Ge(2) atoms. Both Ge(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 2.53 Å. Both Ge(1)-Ge(2) bond lengths are 2.70 Å. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to five equivalent W(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms.
