AgGeO3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmma space group. Ag(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing GeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 32°. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Ag(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OAg2Ge2 tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Ag(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms.
AgGeO3 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmma space group. Ag(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms. Both Ag(1)-O(2) bond lengths are 2.53 Å. There are two shorter (2.17 Å) and two longer (2.37 Å) Ag(1)-O(1) bond lengths. Ge(1) is bonded to two equivalent O(2) and four equivalent O(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing GeO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 32°. Both Ge(1)-O(2) bond lengths are 1.86 Å. All Ge(1)-O(1) bond lengths are 1.98 Å. There are two inequivalent O sites. In the first O site, O(1) is bonded to two equivalent Ag(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of edge and corner-sharing OAg2Ge2 tetrahedra. In the second O site, O(2) is bonded in a distorted bent 150 degrees geometry to two equivalent Ag(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms.
