Abstract
The title compound was prepared by the reaction of the elemental compo nents in a tantalum tube. EuAgGe (single crystal, X-ray, Imma, a = 467 .0(1): b = 740.0(1), c = 798.1(1) pm, V = 0.2755(1) nm(3), Z = 4, wR2 = 0.0371, 474 F-2 values and 13 variables) crystallizes with the ortho rhombic structure of CeCu2. The europium atoms occupy the cerium posit ions, while the silver and germanium atoms are randomly distributed on the copper positions. The crystal structure of EuAgGe is discussed to gether with the structures of EuAg2 and EuAuGe.
