Tris(-{bis-[meth-yl(phen-yl)amino]-phosphor-yl}benzene-sulfonamidato-κ,')(1,10-phenanthroline-κ,')lanthanum(III).

The asymmetric unit of [La(CHNOPS)(CHN)] is created by one La ion, three deprotonated -{bis-[meth-yl(phen-yl)amino]-phosphor-yl}benzene-sulfonamidate () ligands and one 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) mol-ecule. Each La ion is eight-coordinated (6O+2N) by three phosphoryl O atoms, three sulfonyl O atoms of three ligands and two N atoms of the chelating Phen ligand, leading to the formation of six- and five-membered metallacycles, respectively. The lanthanum coordination polyhedron has a bicapped trigonal-prismatic geometry.
