Two periodic series of homoleptic rare earth nitrato com plexes, [R4N]x[M(NO3)y](M = La-Nd, Sm-Lu, Y); R = Et, $$n$$Pr; x = 2-3; y = 5-6) have been synthesized, and charac terized by single crystal X-ray diffraction, IR and Raman spectroscopy, comparing the solid state speciation of the nitrate ions as a function of lanthanide ion and quarternary ammonium cation. The series of the form [Et4N]3[Ln(NO3)6] crystallizes in the rhombohedral space group $$R$$$\bar{3}$$, as a twelve-coordinate hexanitrato complex [Et4N]3[Ln(NO3)6] with cocrystallized HNO3 for La, Pr, and Nd. For Ce, a distinct orthorhombic phase retaining the same formula, [Et4N]3[Ce(NO3)6] is isolated in the absence of HNO3 to prevent oxidation of the Ce(III) to Ce(IV) in nitric acid. A ten-coordinate pentanitrato complex, [Et4N]2[Ln(NO3)5], in monoclinic symmetry forms for the remainder of the series, and for Y(III). The entire series crystallized in the presence of [$$n$$Pr4N]+ counterions forms a pentanitrato complex [$$n$$Pr4N]2[M(NO3)5] in the orthorhombic space group, $Pccn$. In conclusion, analysis of trends in the structural and spectroscopic characteristics of these series reveal insight into the structure directing influences of both the lanthanide contraction and the quarternary ammonium cations.
