The crystal structure described by Dy4In(NiGe2)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/m space group. There are two inequivalent Dy sites. In the first Dy site, Dy(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ni(1), two equivalent In(1), two equivalent Ge(1), and three equivalent Ge(2) atoms. In the second Dy site, Dy(2) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ni(1), two equivalent In(1), three equivalent Ge(2), and four equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Ni(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Dy(1), three equivalent Dy(2), one Ge(1), and three equivalent Ge(2) atoms. In(1) is bonded to four equivalent Dy(1), four equivalent Dy(2), two equivalent Ge(1), and two equivalent Ge(2) atoms to form face-sharing InDy8Ge4 cuboctahedra. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Dy(1), four equivalent Dy(2), one Ni(1), one In(1), and one Ge(1) atom. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Dy(1), three equivalent Dy(2), three equivalent Ni(1), and one In(1) atom. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
