MgEuGe crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Mg(1) is bonded to four equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing MgGe4 tetrahedra. Eu(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Mg(1) and five equivalent Eu(1) atoms.
