Materials Data on La2Mn3PbO9 by Materials Project
La2Mn3PbO9 is Orthorhombic Perovskite-derived structured and crystallizes in the trigonal P-3c1 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. La3+ is bonded in a 9-coordinate geometry to nine O2- atoms. There are a spread of La–O bond distances ranging from 2.46–2.78 Å. There are two inequivalent Mn+3.33+ sites. In the first Mn+3.33+ site, Mn+3.33+ is bonded to six equivalent O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six equivalent MnO6 octahedra and faces with two equivalent PbO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedral tilt angles are 21°. All Mn–O bond lengths are 2.00 Å. In the second Mn+3.33+ site, Mn+3.33+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form MnO6 octahedra that share corners with six MnO6 octahedra and faces with three equivalent PbO12 cuboctahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 14–21°. There are three shorter (1.99 Å) and three longer (2.01 Å) Mn–O bond lengths. Pb2+ is bonded to twelve O2- atoms to form distorted PbO12 cuboctahedra that share corners with six equivalent PbO12 cuboctahedra and faces with eight MnO6 octahedra. There are a spread of Pb–O bond distances ranging from 2.56–3.06 Å. There are two inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 2-coordinate geometry to two equivalent La3+, two equivalent Mn+3.33+, and two equivalent Pb2+ atoms. In the second O2- site, O2- is bonded in a 3-coordinate geometry to two equivalent La3+, two Mn+3.33+, and one Pb2+ atom.
