There are eight inequivalent Ni1+ sites. In the first Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four B3- atoms. There are a spread of Ni–B bond distances ranging from 2.08–2.51 Å. In the second Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a bent 120 degrees geometry to two B3- atoms. There are one shorter (2.06 Å) and one longer (2.08 Å) Ni–B bond lengths. In the third Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three B3- atoms. There are a spread of Ni–B bond distances ranging from 2.02–2.24 Å. In the fourth Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a water-like geometry to two B3- atoms. There are one shorter (2.14 Å) and one longer (2.16 Å) Ni–B bond lengths. In the fifth Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a distorted T-shaped geometry to three B3- atoms. There are a spread of Ni–B bond distances ranging from 1.93–2.07 Å. In the sixth Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four B3- atoms. There are a spread of Ni–B bond distances ranging from 2.06–2.52 Å. In the seventh Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a distorted rectangular see-saw-like geometry to four B3- atoms. There are a spread of Ni–B bond distances ranging from 1.98–2.12 Å. In the eighth Ni1+ site, Ni1+ is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to three B3- atoms. There are a spread of Ni–B bond distances ranging from 1.92–2.17 Å. There are seven inequivalent B3- sites. In the first B3- site, B3- is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to one La+2.25+ and six Ni1+ atoms.
