La13Hg58 crystallizes in the hexagonal P6_3/mmc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are four inequivalent La sites. In the first La site, La is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to fourteen Hg atoms. There are a spread of La–Hg bond distances ranging from 3.25–3.96 Å. In the second La site, La is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to fifteen Hg atoms. There are a spread of La–Hg bond distances ranging from 3.36–3.84 Å. In the third La site, La is bonded in a 6-coordinate geometry to thirteen Hg atoms. There are a spread of La–Hg bond distances ranging from 3.35–3.68 Å. In the fourth La site, La is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to sixteen Hg atoms. There are a spread of La–Hg bond distances ranging from 3.45–3.67 Å. There are twelve inequivalent Hg sites. In the first Hg site, Hg is bonded in a body-centered cubic geometry to eight Hg atoms. There are a spread of Hg–Hg bond distances ranging from 2.90–3.07 Å. In the second Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four La and six Hg atoms. There are a spread of Hg–Hg bond distances ranging from 2.89–3.23 Å. In the third Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four La and six Hg atoms. There are a spread of Hg–Hg bond distances ranging from 2.95–3.03 Å. In the fourth Hg site, Hg is bonded to two equivalent La and ten Hg atoms to form distorted face-sharing HgLa2Hg10 cuboctahedra. There are a spread of Hg–Hg bond distances ranging from 3.10–3.26 Å. In the fifth Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 10-coordinate geometry to four La and six Hg atoms. There are a spread of Hg–Hg bond distances ranging from 2.90–3.22 Å. In the sixth Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three La and six Hg atoms. There are two shorter (2.94 Å) and two longer (3.25 Å) Hg–Hg bond lengths. In the seventh Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 1-coordinate geometry to three La and five Hg atoms. There are one shorter (3.15 Å) and one longer (3.23 Å) Hg–Hg bond lengths. In the eighth Hg site, Hg is bonded in a distorted body-centered cubic geometry to four La and four Hg atoms. In the ninth Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to three La and six Hg atoms. There are one shorter (3.01 Å) and two longer (3.23 Å) Hg–Hg bond lengths. In the tenth Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 11-coordinate geometry to five La and six equivalent Hg atoms. In the eleventh Hg site, Hg is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to three equivalent La and six equivalent Hg atoms. In the twelfth Hg site, Hg is bonded to three equivalent La and nine Hg atoms to form face-sharing HgLa3Hg9 cuboctahedra.
