EuZnGe crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmma space group. Eu(1) is bonded to six equivalent Zn(1) and six equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing EuZn6Ge6 cuboctahedra. Zn(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Eu(1), two equivalent Zn(1), and one Ge(1) atom. Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Eu(1), one Zn(1), and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms.
EuZnGe crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmma space group. Eu(1) is bonded to six equivalent Zn(1) and six equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of face and edge-sharing EuZn6Ge6 cuboctahedra. All Eu(1)-Zn(1) bond lengths are 3.41 Å. There are four shorter (3.26 Å) and two longer (3.31 Å) Eu(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths. Zn(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Eu(1), two equivalent Zn(1), and one Ge(1) atom. Both Zn(1)-Zn(1) bond lengths are 2.45 Å. The Zn(1)-Ge(1) bond length is 2.51 Å. Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Eu(1), one Zn(1), and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Both Ge(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 2.59 Å.
