MgLa2NiO6 is Orthorhombic Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal R-3 space group. Mg(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form MgO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Ni(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 20°. La(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine equivalent O(1) atoms. Ni(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form NiO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Mg(1)O6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 20°. O(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Mg(1), three equivalent La(1), and one Ni(1) atom.
