VGeP4 crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. V(1) is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ge(1), three equivalent P(1), and three equivalent P(2) atoms. There is one shorter (2.72 Å) and three longer (3.22 Å) V(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths. All V(1)-P(1) bond lengths are 2.52 Å. All V(1)-P(2) bond lengths are 3.31 Å. Ge(1) is bonded in a 13-coordinate geometry to four equivalent V(1), three equivalent P(2), and six equivalent P(1) atoms. All Ge(1)-P(2) bond lengths are 2.91 Å. There are three shorter (2.39 Å) and three longer (2.94 Å) Ge(1)-P(1) bond lengths. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent V(1), three equivalent Ge(1), and three equivalent P(1) atoms. All P(2)-P(1) bond lengths are 1.70 Å. In the second P site, P(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one V(1), two equivalent Ge(1), one P(2), and two equivalent P(1) atoms. Both P(1)-P(1) bond lengths are 0.98 Å.
