The structure described by Sm2PtGe3 is hexagonal omega structure-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pmm2 space group. There are two inequivalent Sm sites. In the first Sm site, Sm(1) is bonded to two equivalent Pt(1), two equivalent Ge(3), four equivalent Ge(1), and four equivalent Ge(2) atoms to form SmGe10Pt2 cuboctahedra that share edges with four equivalent Sm(1)Ge10Pt2 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent Sm(2)Ge8Pt4 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Sm(1)Ge10Pt2 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent Sm(2)Ge8Pt4 cuboctahedra. In the second Sm site, Sm(2) is bonded to four equivalent Pt(1), two equivalent Ge(1), two equivalent Ge(2), and four equivalent Ge(3) atoms to form SmGe8Pt4 cuboctahedra that share edges with four equivalent Sm(2)Ge8Pt4 cuboctahedra, edges with eight equivalent Sm(1)Ge10Pt2 cuboctahedra, faces with four equivalent Sm(1)Ge10Pt2 cuboctahedra, and faces with four equivalent Sm(2)Ge8Pt4 cuboctahedra. Pt(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sm(1), four equivalent Sm(2), one Ge(3), and two equivalent Ge(2) atoms. There are three inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sm(2), four equivalent Sm(1), one Ge(2), and two equivalent Ge(3) atoms. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sm(2), four equivalent Sm(1), two equivalent Pt(1), and one Ge(1) atom. In the third Ge site, Ge(3) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Sm(1), four equivalent Sm(2), one Pt(1), and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
