La2ZnBiO6 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. La(1) is bonded in a distorted trigonal planar geometry to three equivalent O(1) atoms. Zn(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form ZnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Bi(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 34°. Bi(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form BiO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Zn(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 34°. O(1) is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to one La(1), one Zn(1), and one Bi(1) atom.
