The crystal structure described by LiNdGe2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Pnma space group. Li(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ge(2) and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Nd(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ge(1) and five equivalent Ge(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Li(1), four equivalent Nd(1), and two equivalent Ge(2) atoms. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Li(1), five equivalent Nd(1), and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
