La La La La Tc Ge
La4TcGe crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. There are two inequivalent La sites. In the first La site, La(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one La(2), two equivalent La(1), two equivalent Tc(1), and two equivalent Ge(1) atoms. The La(1)-La(2) bond length is 2.02 Å. Both La(1)-La(1) bond lengths are 1.17 Å. There is one shorter (2.61 Å) and one longer (3.87 Å) La(1)-Tc(1) bond length. Both La(1)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 3.59 Å. In the second La site, La(2) is bonded in a distorted q6 geometry to three equivalent La(1), three equivalent Tc(1), and three equivalent Ge(1) atoms. All La(2)-Tc(1) bond lengths are 3.65 Å. All La(2)-Ge(1) bond lengths are 3.62 Å. Tc(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent La(2) and six equivalent La(1) atoms. Ge(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent La(2) and six equivalent La(1) atoms.
