The structure described by NdAlO3 crystallizes in the trigonal R-3c space group. Nd(1) is bonded to twelve equivalent O(1) atoms to form distorted NdO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with twelve equivalent Nd(1)O12 cuboctahedra, faces with six equivalent Nd(1)O12 cuboctahedra, and faces with eight equivalent Al(1)O6 octahedra. Al(1) is bonded to six equivalent O(1) atoms to form AlO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent Al(1)O6 octahedra and faces with eight equivalent Nd(1)O12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 16°. O(1) is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to four equivalent Nd(1) and two equivalent Al(1) atoms. is represented by the CIF card [CIF]
