NbCdGe2 is alpha iridium vanadium-derived structured and crystallizes in the orthorhombic Amm2 space group. Nb(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ge(1) atoms. There are four shorter (2.75 Å) and four longer (3.03 Å) Nb(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths. Cd(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to eight equivalent Ge(1) atoms. There are four shorter (2.75 Å) and four longer (3.03 Å) Cd(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths. Ge(1) is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four equivalent Nb(1) and four equivalent Cd(1) atoms.
