Abstract The compound [VO(dien)] 2 GeS 4 ( 1 , dien = diethylenetriamine) features an ortho ‐thiogermanate anion [GeS 4 ] 4– , which acts as tetradentate ligand joining [VO(dien)] 2– complexes. The compound was obtained under solvothermal conditions crystallizing in thenon‐centrosymmetric orthorhombic space group Pna 2 1 with a =19.8310(11), b = 8.0814(5), c = 12.0889(9) Å, V = 1937.4(2) Å 3 and Z = 4. The V 4+ cations are in a distorted octahedral environment of a tridentate dien molecule, one oxygen atom and two sulfur atoms from the [GeS 4 ] 4– anion. A three‐dimensional network is generated by hydrogen bonding interactions.
