LaMnTe4 crystallizes in the trigonal R3m space group. La(1) is bonded to three equivalent Mn(1), three equivalent Te(2), and six equivalent Te(1) atoms to form a mixture of distorted corner and edge-sharing LaMn3Te9 cuboctahedra. All La(1)-Mn(1) bond lengths are 3.71 Å. All La(1)-Te(2) bond lengths are 3.67 Å. There are three shorter (3.16 Å) and three longer (3.49 Å) La(1)-Te(1) bond lengths. Mn(1) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent La(1), three equivalent Te(1), and three equivalent Te(2) atoms. All Mn(1)-Te(1) bond lengths are 3.64 Å. All Mn(1)-Te(2) bond lengths are 3.66 Å. There are two inequivalent Te sites. In the first Te site, Te(2) is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three equivalent La(1), three equivalent Mn(1), and three equivalent Te(1) atoms. All Te(2)-Te(1) bond lengths are 2.68 Å. In the second Te site, Te(1) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent La(1), one Mn(1), one Te(2), and two equivalent Te(1) atoms. Both Te(1)-Te(1) bond lengths are 1.55 Å.
