In the fourth La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to seven C+3.95- atoms to form distorted LaC7 pentagonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one LaC6 octahedra, a cornercorner with one CLa5C octahedra, corners with three LaC7 pentagonal bipyramids, a cornercorner with one LaC5 trigonal bipyramid, an edgeedge with one LaC7 pentagonal bipyramid, and a faceface with one LaC7 pentagonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 99–110°. There are a spread of La–C bond distances ranging from 2.75–3.00 Å. In the fifth La3+ site, La3+ is bonded to five C+3.95- atoms to form distorted LaC5 trigonal bipyramids that share a cornercorner with one LaC6 octahedra, corners with two LaC7 pentagonal bipyramids, a cornercorner with one LaC5 trigonal bipyramid, an edgeedge with one LaC6 octahedra, an edgeedge with one LaC7 pentagonal bipyramid, and an edgeedge with one LaC5 trigonal bipyramid. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 24°. There are a spread of La–C bond distances ranging from 2.56–2.96 Å.
