The structure described by CoGeN2 is H-Phase structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. Co(1) is bonded to six equivalent N(1) atoms to form CoN6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Ge(1)N6 pentagonal pyramids, edges with six equivalent Co(1)N6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent Ge(1)N6 pentagonal pyramids. Ge(1) is bonded to six equivalent N(1) atoms to form distorted GeN6 pentagonal pyramids that share corners with six equivalent Co(1)N6 octahedra, edges with six equivalent Co(1)N6 octahedra, and edges with six equivalent Ge(1)N6 pentagonal pyramids. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 7°. N(1) is bonded to three equivalent Co(1) and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing NCo3Ge3 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles range from 0-45°. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
