The material structure described by La2CN3Cl crystallizes in the orthorhombic Cmmm space group. There are two inequivalent La sites. In the first La site, La(1) is bonded in a 8-coordinate geometry to two equivalent N(1), two equivalent N(2), and four equivalent Cl(1) atoms. In the second La site, La(2) is bonded in a 7-coordinate geometry to two equivalent N(1), four equivalent N(2), and one Cl(1) atom. C(1) is bonded in a linear geometry to two equivalent N(2) atoms. There are two inequivalent N sites. In the first N site, N(1) is bonded to two equivalent La(1) and two equivalent La(2) atoms to form a mixture of corner and edge-sharing NLa4 tetrahedra. In the second N site, N(2) is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to one La(1), two equivalent La(2), and one C(1) atom. Cl(1) is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one La(2) and four equivalent La(1) atoms. is represented by the Crystallographic Information File (CIF) [CIF]
