Abstract The stannides RERhSn (RE = Ho -Yb) and ScTSn (T = Pd, Pt) were prepared by reaction of the elements in sealed tantalum tubes in a high-frequency furnace, by arc-melting, or by a tin-flux technique in quartz tubes. The rhodium based stannides crystallize with the ZrNiAl type structure, space group P6̄2m. The four structures were refined from single crystal X-ray data: a = 754.5(3), c = 377.1(1) pm, wR2 = 0.0357, 233 F2 values for HoRhSn, a = 753.3(1), c = 372.16(8) pm, wR2 = 0.0721, 233 F2 values for ErRhSn, a = 753.7(3), c = 369.0(2) pm, wR2 = 0.0671,233 F2 values for TmRhSn, and a = 753.17(5), c = 366.53(4) pm, wR2 = 0.0566, 180 F2 values for YbRhSn with 14 parameters for each refinement. ScPdSn and ScPtSn adopt the HfRhSn type, a superstructure of ZrNiAl, space group P6̄2c: a = 747.5(1), c = 710.2(1) pm, for ScPdSn, and a = 738.37(9), c = 729.47(9) pm, wR2 = 0.0452,369 F2 values, 18 variables for ScPtSn. Structural motifs in these stannides are transition metal centered trigonal prisms formed by the rare earth and tin atoms. While these prisms are regular in the rhodium based stannides, significant distortions occur in ScPdSn and ScPtSn. The formation of the superstructure can be ascribed to packing reasons. The shortest interatomic distances occur between the transition metal (T) and tin atoms. These atoms form three-dimensional [FSn] networks in which the rare earth atoms fill distorted hexagonal channels. The series RERhSn displays a somewhat unique behavior. The a lattice parameter is more or less independent of the rare earth element, while the c lattice parameter shows the expected lanthanoid contraction. 119Sn Mössbauer spectroscopic data of the rhodium stannides show signals at isomer shifts varying from 1.77 to 1.82 mm/s subject to quadrupole splitting between 0.75 to 0.82 mm/s.

AbstractThe rare earth oxoborates REB5O8(OH)2 (RE = Ho, Er, Tm) were synthesized in a Walker-type multianvil apparatus at a pressure of 2.5 GPa and a temperature of 673 K. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction data provided the basis for the structure solution and refinement. The compounds crystallize in the monoclinic space group C2 (no. 5) and are composed of a layer-like structure containing dreier and sechser rings of corner sharing [BO4]5− tetrahedra. The rare earth metal cations are coordinated between two adjacent sechser rings. Further characterization was performed utilizing IR spectroscopy.

Small single crystals of the Sm5Ge4-type (space group Pnma) germanides RE2Nb3Ge4 (RE = Sc, Y, Gd-Er, Lu) and Sc2Ta3Ge4 were synthesized by arc-melting of the respective elements. The samples were characterized by powder and single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In all structures, except for Sc2.04Nb2.96Ge4 and Sc2.19Ta2.81Ge4, the rare earth and niobium atoms show full ordering on the three crystallographically independent samarium sites of the Sm5Ge4 type. Two sites with coordination number 6 are occupied by niobium, while the slightly larger site with coordination number 7 is filled with the rare earth element. Small homogeneity ranges with RE=Nb and RE=Ta mixing can be expected for all compounds. The ordered substitution of two rare earth sites by niobium or tantalum has drastic effects on the coordination number and chemical bonding. This was studied for the pair Y5Ge4/Y2Nb3Ge4. Electronic structure calculations show larger charge transfer from yttrium to germanium for Y5Ge4, contrary to Y2Nb3Ge4 which shows stronger covalent bonding due to the presence of Nb replacing Y at two sites

The temperature dependences of the lattice constants of single crystals of the rare-earth hexaborides EuB6and GdB6were determined by analysing the low-temperature X-ray patterns. The lattice constant decreases monotonously with decreasing temperature. The linear thermal expansion coefficients for the two compounds were also obtained by analysing the temperature dependence of the lattice constants.
