GeH3 is alpha bismuth trifluoride structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. Ge(1) is bonded in a distorted linear geometry to one H(1), three equivalent H(2), and four equivalent H(3) atoms. The Ge(1)-H(1) bond length is 1.91 Å. All Ge(1)-H(2) bond lengths are 2.24 Å. There is one shorter (1.91 Å) and three longer (2.20 Å) Ge(1)-H(3) bond lengths. There are three inequivalent H sites. In the first H site, H(1) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Ge(1) atom. In the second H site, H(2) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. In the third H site, H(3) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to four equivalent Ge(1) atoms.
