Tc4MnGe crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. There are two inequivalent Tc sites. In the first Tc site, Tc(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Tc(2), two equivalent Tc(1), three equivalent Mn(1), and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. The Tc(1)-Tc(2) bond length is 1.91 Å. Both Tc(1)-Tc(1) bond lengths are 1.10 Å. There are two shorter (3.08 Å) and one longer (3.44 Å) Tc(1)-Mn(1) bond length. There is one shorter (2.26 Å) and one longer (3.01 Å) Tc(1)-Ge(1) bond length. In the second Tc site, Tc(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Tc(1), three equivalent Mn(1), and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. All Tc(2)-Mn(1) bond lengths are 2.93 Å. All Tc(2)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 2.92 Å. Mn(1) is bonded in a 15-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Tc(2), nine equivalent Tc(1), and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. All Mn(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 2.95 Å. Ge(1) is bonded to three equivalent Tc(2), six equivalent Tc(1), and three equivalent Mn(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing GeMn3Tc9 cuboctahedra.
