La5P4 is Indium-like structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic Cm space group. The structure is zero-dimensional and consists of two La5P4 clusters. There are four inequivalent La sites. In the first La site, La(1) is bonded in a single-bond geometry to one La(3) and one La(4) atom. The La(1)-La(3) bond length is 0.15 Å. The La(1)-La(4) bond length is 1.92 Å. In the second La site, La(2) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one La(4) and one P(1) atom. The La(2)-La(4) bond length is 2.32 Å. The La(2)-P(1) bond length is 2.44 Å. In the third La site, La(3) is bonded in a distorted single-bond geometry to one La(1), one La(4), and two equivalent P(2) atoms. The La(3)-La(4) bond length is 1.92 Å. Both La(3)-P(2) bond lengths are 1.15 Å. In the fourth La site, La(4) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one La(1), one La(3), two equivalent La(2), and two equivalent P(2) atoms. Both La(4)-P(2) bond lengths are 2.24 Å. There are two inequivalent P sites. In the first P site, P(1) is bonded in an L-shaped geometry to one La(2) and one P(2) atom. The P(1)-P(2) bond length is 0.31 Å. In the second P site, P(2) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one La(3), one La(4), and one P(1) atom.
