Synthesis
Lanthanum hydroxide can be obtained by adding an alkali such as ammonia to aqueous solutions of lanthanum salts such as lanthanum nitrate. This produces a gel-like precipitate that can then be dried in air.[2]
- La(NO3)3 + 3 NH4OH → La(OH)3 + 3 NH4NO3
Alternatively, it can be produced by hydration reaction (addition of water) to lanthanum oxide.[3]
- La2O3 + 3 H2O → 2 La(OH)3
Characteristics
Lanthanum hydroxide does not react much with alkaline substances, however is slightly soluble in acidic solution.[2] In temperatures above 330 °C it decomposes into lanthanum oxide hydroxide (LaOOH), which upon further heating decomposes into lanthanum oxide (La2O3):[4]
- La(OH)3 LaOOH

Lanthanum hydroxide crystallizes in the hexagonal crystal system. Each lanthanum ion in the crystal structure is surrounded by nine hydroxide ions in a tricapped trigonal prism.[5]
