CdB2Ge crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. Cd(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to three equivalent B(1), three equivalent B(2), and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. There are a spread of Cd(1)-B(1) bond distances ranging from 2.14-2.85 Å. There are a spread of Cd(1)-B(2) bond distances ranging from 2.14-2.85 Å. There is one shorter (2.51 Å) and one longer (2.79 Å) Cd(1)-Ge(1) bond length. There are two inequivalent B sites. In the first B site, B(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Cd(1) and one B(2) atom. The B(1)-B(2) bond length is 0.95 Å. In the second B site, B(2) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Cd(1), one B(1), and one Ge(1) atom. The B(2)-Ge(1) bond length is 2.21 Å. Ge(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Cd(1) and one B(2) atom.
