LaPb2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. La(1) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to ten equivalent Pb(1) atoms. Pb(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent La(1) and four equivalent Pb(1) atoms.
LaPb2 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4/mmm space group. La(1) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to ten equivalent Pb(1) atoms. There are two shorter (3.54 Å) and eight longer (3.60 Å) La(1)-Pb(1) bond lengths. Pb(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to five equivalent La(1) and four equivalent Pb(1) atoms. All Pb(1)-Pb(1) bond lengths are 3.26 Å.
