NbPdGe2 crystallizes in the triclinic P1 space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of one NbPdGe2 cluster. Nb(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Pd(1) and one Ge(2) atom. The Nb(1)-Pd(1) bond length is 2.14 Å. The Nb(1)-Ge(2) bond length is 2.16 Å. Pd(1) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Nb(1) and one Ge(1) atom. The Pd(1)-Ge(1) bond length is 1.10 Å. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge(1) is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Pd(1) atom. In the second Ge site, Ge(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Nb(1) atom.
