Na2Sr(Ge4O9)2 crystallizes in the trigonal P-3c1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Na1+ is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Na–O bond distances ranging from 2.53–2.85 Å. Sr2+ is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to ten O2- atoms. There are a spread of Sr–O bond distances ranging from 2.65–3.08 Å. There are seven inequivalent Ge4+ sites. In the first Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form corner-sharing GeO6 octahedra. All Ge–O bond lengths are 1.93 Å. In the second Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two GeO6 octahedra and corners with two GeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 54–56°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.81 Å. In the third Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing GeO6 octahedra. All Ge–O bond lengths are 1.91 Å. In the fourth Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two GeO6 octahedra and corners with two GeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 53–63°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.81 Å. In the fifth Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form corner-sharing GeO6 octahedra. There is three shorter (1.88 Å) and three longer (1.91 Å) Ge–O bond length. In the sixth Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form corner-sharing GeO6 octahedra. All Ge–O bond lengths are 1.94 Å. In the seventh Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with two GeO6 octahedra and corners with two GeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 61–64°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.78–1.82 Å. There are nine inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Na1+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Sr2+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Sr2+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a trigonal planar geometry to one Na1+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Sr2+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na1+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Sr2+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Na1+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Na1+, one Sr2+, and two Ge4+ atoms.
