Ge2N2O crystallizes in the monoclinic Cc space group. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded to one N(1), two equivalent N(2), and one O(1) atom to form corner-sharing GeN3O tetrahedra. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded to one N(2), two equivalent N(1), and one O(1) atom to form corner-sharing GeN3O tetrahedra. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Ge(1) and two equivalent Ge(2) atoms. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Ge(2) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. O(1) is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to one Ge(1) and one Ge(2) atom.
