LaAgGe crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3mc space group. La(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ag(1) and six equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and edge-sharing LaAg6Ge6 cuboctahedra. Ag(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent La(1) and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent La(1) and three equivalent Ag(1) atoms.
LaAgGe crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3mc space group. La(1) is bonded to six equivalent Ag(1) and six equivalent Ge(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted face and edge-sharing LaAg6Ge6 cuboctahedra. There are three shorter (3.25 Å) and three longer (3.37 Å) La(1)-Ag(1) bond lengths. There are three shorter (3.16 Å) and three longer (3.46 Å) La(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths. Ag(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent La(1) and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. All Ag(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 2.65 Å. Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to six equivalent La(1) and three equivalent Ag(1) atoms.
