The material structure described by MgLa2Si4 crystallizes in the tetragonal I4_1/amd space group. Mg(1) is bonded in a distorted square co-planar geometry to four equivalent La(1) and four equivalent Si(2) atoms. La(1) is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(1), two equivalent La(1), two equivalent Si(2), and four equivalent Si(1) atoms. There are two inequivalent Si sites. In the first Si site, Si(2) is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Mg(1), two equivalent La(1), one Si(1), and one Si(2) atom. In the second Si site, Si(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to four equivalent La(1), one Si(2), and three equivalent Si(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
