Suitable proportions of La, La 4 Pb 3 and La 2 O 3 or LaN reacted in pressed pellets at 1050°–1250°C result in high yields of the title compounds. Single crystal X‐ray studies of the oxide show it to be an isopointal, interstitial derivative of the Cr 5 B 3 structure (I4/mcm, Z = 4, a = 8.6895(2) Å, c = 14.540(1) Å, R/R w = 3.0/3.5%). Oxygen or nitrogen atoms are bound in (La2) 4 tetrahedra within chains along (0, 1 /2, z). Negligible dimerization of the type characteristic of Cr 5 B 3 is indicated by the Pb2Pb2 separation, 3.550(1) Å. The structure is compared with other related examples.
