The material structure described by Ce5RhGe2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. There are four inequivalent Ce sites. In the first Ce site, Ce(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Rh(1) and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. In the second Ce site, Ce(2) is bonded to one Rh(1) and four equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing CeGe4Rh square pyramids. In the third Ce site, Ce(3) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Rh(1) and four equivalent Ge(1) atoms. In the fourth Ce site, Ce(4) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Rh(1) and four equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Rh(1) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Ce(2), one Ce(3), one Ce(4), and four equivalent Ce(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ce(2), two equivalent Ce(3), two equivalent Ce(4), and three equivalent Ce(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
