293 K, R = 0.055 for 6846 observed reflections. The
eight independent molecules in the asymmetric unit
form two independent O--H...O hydrogen-bonded
tetramers with the O atoms in a flattened tetrahedral
arrangement [hydrogen-bond distances in the range
2.609 (11) to 2.657 (11)A]. The Ge atoms are tetrahedrally
coordinated with mean Gc O 1.791 (7) and
Gc C 1.931 (8) A.
