BaLa3Mn4O12 is Orthorhombic Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the monoclinic P2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Ba2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form distorted BaO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with four equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra and faces with eight MnO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Ba–O bond distances ranging from 2.68–3.13 Å. There are three inequivalent La3+ sites. In the first La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 12-coordinate geometry to eleven O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.49–2.91 Å. In the second La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.47–2.81 Å. In the third La3+ site, La3+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.46–2.84 Å. There are two inequivalent Mn+3.25+ sites. In the first Mn+3.25+ site, Mn+3.25+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six MnO6 octahedra and faces with two equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 8–20°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.02 Å. In the second Mn+3.25+ site, Mn+3.25+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six MnO6 octahedra and faces with two equivalent BaO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 8–20°. There are a spread of Mn–O bond distances ranging from 1.99–2.01 Å. There are eight inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ba2+, three La3+, and two Mn+3.25+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to one Ba2+, three La3+, and two Mn+3.25+ atoms. In the third O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three La3+ and two equivalent Mn+3.25+ atoms. In the fourth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, two equivalent La3+, and two equivalent Mn+3.25+ atoms. In the fifth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Ba2+, two La3+, and two Mn+3.25+ atoms. In the sixth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to one Ba2+, two La3+, and two Mn+3.25+ atoms. In the seventh O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to two equivalent Ba2+, one La3+, and two equivalent Mn+3.25+ atoms. In the eighth O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 5-coordinate geometry to three La3+ and two equivalent Mn+3.25+ atoms.
