LaAl2 is Cubic Laves structured and crystallizes in the cubic Fd-3m space group. La(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Al(1) atoms. Al(1) is bonded to six equivalent La(1) and six equivalent Al(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing AlLa6Al6 cuboctahedra.
