Cr Cr Ge
Cr2Ge crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two Cr2Ge clusters. There are two inequivalent Cr sites. In the first Cr site, Cr(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Cr(2) atom. The Cr(1)-Cr(2) bond length is 0.48 Å. In the second Cr site, Cr(2) is bonded in a linear geometry to one Cr(1) and one Ge(1) atom. The Cr(2)-Ge(1) bond length is 1.47 Å. Ge(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Cr(2) atom.
