The material structure described by Sn5(GeN3)2 crystallizes in the monoclinic C2/c space group. There are three inequivalent Sn sites. In the first Sn site, Sn(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one N(2) and two equivalent N(3) atoms. In the second Sn site, Sn(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one N(2) and two equivalent N(1) atoms. In the third Sn site, Sn(3) is bonded in a water-like geometry to two equivalent N(2) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded to one N(1), one N(2), and two equivalent N(3) atoms to form distorted edge-sharing GeN4 tetrahedra. There are three inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(2) is bonded to one Sn(1), one Sn(2), one Sn(3), and one Ge(1) atom to form distorted corner-sharing NSn3Ge tetrahedra. In the second N site, N(3) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to two equivalent Sn(1) and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. In the third N site, N(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two equivalent Sn(2) and one Ge(1) atom. is represented by the CIF file [CIF]
