The structure described by KGeCl3 is (Cubic) Perovskite structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. K(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Cl(2) and eight equivalent Cl(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded to two equivalent Cl(2) and four equivalent Cl(1) atoms to form distorted corner-sharing GeCl6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 5-7°. There are two inequivalent Cl sites. In the first Cl site, Cl(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to four equivalent K(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. In the second Cl site, Cl(2) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to four equivalent K(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
