YbLaAl4 is Cubic Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Yb(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Al(1) atoms. La(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Al(1) atoms. Al(1) is bonded to three equivalent Yb(1), three equivalent La(1), and six equivalent Al(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing AlLa3Yb3Al6 cuboctahedra.
YbLaAl4 is Cubic Laves-derived structured and crystallizes in the cubic F-43m space group. Yb(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Al(1) atoms. All Yb(1)-Al(1) bond lengths are 3.32 Å. La(1) is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to twelve equivalent Al(1) atoms. All La(1)-Al(1) bond lengths are 3.32 Å. Al(1) is bonded to three equivalent Yb(1), three equivalent La(1), and six equivalent Al(1) atoms to form a mixture of corner, edge, and face-sharing AlLa3Yb3Al6 cuboctahedra. There are three shorter (2.83 Å) and three longer (2.84 Å) Al(1)-Al(1) bond lengths.
