GdLaAl4 is Hexagonal Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Gd(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent La(1) and twelve equivalent Al(1) atoms. La(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Gd(1) and twelve equivalent Al(1) atoms. Al(1) is bonded to three equivalent Gd(1), three equivalent La(1), and six equivalent Al(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing AlLa3Gd3Al6 cuboctahedra.
GdLaAl4 is Hexagonal Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Gd(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent La(1) and twelve equivalent Al(1) atoms. All Gd(1)-La(1) bond lengths are 3.47 Å. All Gd(1)-Al(1) bond lengths are 3.32 Å. La(1) is bonded in a 16-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Gd(1) and twelve equivalent Al(1) atoms. All La(1)-Al(1) bond lengths are 3.32 Å. Al(1) is bonded to three equivalent Gd(1), three equivalent La(1), and six equivalent Al(1) atoms to form a mixture of face, corner, and edge-sharing AlLa3Gd3Al6 cuboctahedra. There are three shorter (2.83 Å) and three longer (2.84 Å) Al(1)-Al(1) bond lengths.
