Ge2C2(SF2)3 is diamond structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of eight 1,3,5,7-tetrakis(trifluoromethyl)-2,4,6,8,9,10-hexathia-1,3,5,7-tetragermatricyclo[3.3.1.13,7]decane molecules. Ge(1) is bonded to one C(1) and three equivalent S(1) atoms to form corner-sharing GeCS3 tetrahedra. C(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to one Ge(1) and three equivalent F(1) atoms. S(1) is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. F(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one C(1) atom.
