ThNiGe2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmcm space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Th is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Ni and ten Ge atoms. All Th–Ni bond lengths are 3.26 Å. There are a spread of Th–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.18–3.27 Å. Ni is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Th and five Ge atoms. There are a spread of Ni–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.33–2.42 Å. There are two inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Th, one Ni, and two equivalent Ge atoms. Both Ge–Ge bond lengths are 2.54 Å. In the second Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Th and four equivalent Ni atoms.
