The material described by Ce2Ni3Ge5 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Ibam space group. Ce(1) is bonded in a 17-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ni(2), five equivalent Ni(1), two equivalent Ge(3), four equivalent Ge(1), and four equivalent Ge(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ni sites. In the first Ni site, Ni(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to five equivalent Ce(1), one Ge(2), two equivalent Ge(1), and two equivalent Ge(3) atoms. In the second Ni site, Ni(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ce(1), two equivalent Ge(1), and four 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 four equivalent Ce(1), one Ni(2), two equivalent Ni(1), and two equivalent Ge(2) atoms. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ce(1), one Ni(1), two equivalent Ni(2), and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. In the third Ge site, Ge(3) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ce(1) and four equivalent Ni(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
