LiCd4Ge5HO15 crystallizes in the triclinic P-1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Li1+ is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to four O2- atoms. There are a spread of Li–O bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.12 Å. There are four inequivalent Cd2+ sites. In the first Cd2+ site, Cd2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CdO6 octahedra that share corners with six GeO4 tetrahedra and edges with three CdO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.28–2.44 Å. In the second Cd2+ site, Cd2+ is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to seven O2- atoms. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.22–3.00 Å. In the third Cd2+ site, Cd2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CdO6 octahedra that share corners with six GeO4 tetrahedra and edges with three CdO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.26–2.40 Å. In the fourth Cd2+ site, Cd2+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form CdO6 octahedra that share corners with six GeO4 tetrahedra and edges with four CdO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Cd–O bond distances ranging from 2.30–2.45 Å. There are five inequivalent Ge4+ sites. In the first Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three CdO6 octahedra and corners with two GeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 37–64°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.74–1.82 Å. In the second Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four CdO6 octahedra and corners with two GeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 53–62°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.74–1.82 Å. In the third Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with three CdO6 octahedra and corners with two GeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 47–65°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.80 Å. In the fourth Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four CdO6 octahedra and corners with two GeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 44–65°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.76–1.79 Å. In the fifth Ge4+ site, Ge4+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form GeO4 tetrahedra that share corners with four CdO6 octahedra and corners with two GeO4 tetrahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 42–64°. There are a spread of Ge–O bond distances ranging from 1.75–1.81 Å. H1+ is bonded in a linear geometry to two O2- atoms. There is one shorter (1.07 Å) and one longer (1.42 Å) H–O bond length. There are fifteen inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cd2+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to one Cd2+, one Ge4+, and one H1+ atom. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal non-coplanar geometry to two Cd2+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to two Cd2+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded to one Li1+, two Cd2+, and one Ge4+ atom to form distorted corner-sharing OLiCd2Ge tetrahedra. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to one Li1+, one Cd2+, one Ge4+, and one H1+ atom. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Cd2+ and one Ge4+ atom to form distorted corner-sharing OCd3Ge tetrahedra. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to two Cd2+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the ninth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one Cd2+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the tenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted bent 120 degrees geometry to one Cd2+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the eleventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the twelfth O2- site, O2- is bonded to three Cd2+ and one Ge4+ atom to form a mixture of distorted edge and corner-sharing OCd3Ge tetrahedra. In the thirteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to one Li1+ and two Ge4+ atoms. In the fourteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Cd2+ and one Ge4+ atom. In the fifteenth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 4-coordinate geometry to three Cd2+ and one Ge4+ atom.
