YbPtGe2 crystallizes in the orthorhombic Imm2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are two inequivalent Yb sites. In the first Yb site, Yb is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to six equivalent Pt and nine Ge atoms. There are four shorter (3.24 Å) and two longer (3.29 Å) Yb–Pt bond lengths. There are a spread of Yb–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.02–3.55 Å. In the second Yb site, Yb is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Pt and ten Ge atoms. There are two shorter (3.25 Å) and two longer (3.26 Å) Yb–Pt bond lengths. There are a spread of Yb–Ge bond distances ranging from 3.31–3.47 Å. Pt is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to five Yb and five Ge atoms. There are a spread of Pt–Ge bond distances ranging from 2.51–2.64 Å. There are three inequivalent Ge sites. In the first Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six Yb, two equivalent Pt, and one Ge atom. The Ge–Ge bond length is 2.42 Å. In the second Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four Yb, three equivalent Pt, and one Ge atom. The Ge–Ge bond length is 2.65 Å. In the third Ge site, Ge is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to five Yb and two equivalent Pt atoms.
