The structure described by La3Rh2Ge2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pbcm space group. There are two inequivalent La sites. In the first La site, La(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rh(1), two equivalent Ge(2), and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. In the second La site, La(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Rh(1), two equivalent Ge(1), and three equivalent Ge(2) atoms. Rh(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent La(1), four equivalent La(2), one Ge(1), and two equivalent Ge(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent La(1), four equivalent La(2), and two equivalent Rh(1) atoms. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded to two equivalent La(1), six equivalent La(2), and four equivalent Rh(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner, edge, and face-sharing GeLa8Rh4 cuboctahedra. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
