The X-ray powder diffraction pattern of the room temperature phase of Cd4GeSe6, a II4 □ IV VI6 semiconducting material, has been recorded and evaluated. This material crystallizes in the monoclinic space group Cc [No. 9] with a=12.847(3), b=7.407(2), c=12.854(2) Å, β=109.82(1)°, and Z=4. The powder diffraction pattern was also used to refine the crystal structure of this material employing the Rietveld method. The refinement of 56 parameters led to RWP=13.2%, RP=9.95% for 3751 step intensities and RB=7.05% and RF=5.20% for 833 reflections. Cd4GeSe6 can be considered a defect “adamantane-structure” material with a sphalerite-related superstructure.

The crystal structure of the potassium salt of 1-(tetrazol-5-yl)-2-nitroguanidine [K(C2H3N8O2)] was solved and refined from X-ray powder diffraction data by applying the derivative difference minimization (DDM) method. The compound is of interest as an energetic substance. The structure model was found from a Patterson search. The reflection intensities for the Patterson synthesis were derived from the powder profile by applying a newly developed DDM-based profile decomposition procedure. The use of the DDM method allowed successful location and unconstrained refinement of all the atomic positions, including those of three independent H atoms. The advantages of DDM in terms of the precision and reproducibility of the structural parameters are discussed in comparison to Rietveld refinement results. The failure to refine the H-atom positions by the Rietveld method was attributed to systematic errors associated with the background modelling, which are avoided by DDM.

Synthesis and structure of two phosphates belonging to the ternary Sb2O5-Fe2O3-P2O5 system are reported. Structures of both SbV1.50FeIII0.50(PO4)3 and (SbV0.50FeIIIe0.50)P2O7 phases, obtained by solid state reaction in air atmosphere at 950 °C and 900 °C, respectively, were determined at room temperature from X-ray powder diffraction using the Rietveld method. Sb1.50Fe0.50(PO4)3 phosphate belongs to the Nasicon-type structure with R32 space group. Hexagonal cell parameters are ahex.=8.305(1) Å and chex.=22.035(2) Å. Rietveld refinement results show a 2-2 ordered distribution, along the c-axis, of X(1) and X(2) sites (crystallographic formula [Sb0.88Fe0.12]X(1)[Fe0.38Sb0.62]X(2)(PO4)3) in the Nasicon framework. (Sb0.50Fe0.50)P2O7 is isotypic with β-SbP2O7 pyrophosphate [Pna21 space group; a=7.865(1) Å, b=15.699(2) Å, c=7.847(1) Å]. Its crystal structure is built up from corner-shared SbO6 or FeO6 octahedra and P2O7 groups (two group types). Each P2O7 group shares its six vertices with three SbO6 and three FeO6 octahedra, and each octahedra is connected to six P2O7 groups. A quasi 1-1 ordered distribution, along the b-axis, of Sb5+ and Fe3+ ions in the pyrophosphate framework are observed.

Crystal structure of high-temperature modification of Pd73Sn14Te13 has been refined by the Rietveld method from laboratory X-ray powder diffraction data. Refined crystallographic data of Pd73Sn14Te13 are a=7.6456(3) Å, c=13.9575(9) Å, V=706.75(6) Å3, space group P63cm (No. 185), Z=6, and Dx=10.71 g/cm3. The title compound is isostructural with Pd5Sb2 and Ni5As2; it can be considered as a stacking and filling variant of the Ni2In structure. An important structural feature in the high-temperature modification of Pd73Sn14Te13 is the presence of various Pd-Pd bonds.
