LiYb8Ge13 is Magnesium tetraboride-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2_1/c space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to three Yb and five Ge atoms. There are a spread of Li–Yb bond distances ranging from 2.84–3.08 Å. There are a spread of Li–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.45–2.88 Å. There are eight inequivalent Yb sites. In the first Yb site, Yb is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Li and seven Ge atoms. There are a spread of Yb–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.77–3.31 Å. In the second Yb site, Yb is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to eight Ge atoms. There are a spread of Yb–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.01–3.36 Å. In the third Yb site, Yb is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to six Ge atoms.

In the third Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Li, four Yb, and three Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.59 Å) and one longer (2.63 Å) Ge–Ge bond lengths. In the fourth Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to five Yb and two Ge atoms. The Ge–Ge bond length is 2.49 Å. In the fifth Ge site, Ge is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one Li, three Yb, and two Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.44 Å) and one longer (2.80 Å) Ge–Ge bond lengths. In the sixth Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to four Yb and two Ge atoms. The Ge–Ge bond length is 2.41 Å. In the seventh Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four Yb and four Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.61 Å) and two longer (2.67 Å) Ge–Ge bond lengths. In the eighth Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to five Yb and three Ge atoms. There are one shorter (2.45 Å) and one longer (2.82 Å) Ge–Ge bond lengths. In the ninth Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five Yb and two Ge atoms. In the tenth Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to seven Yb and one Ge atom. In the eleventh Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to one Li, four Yb, and two Ge atoms.
