The platinum-rich intermetallic compounds GdPt2In and GdPt2Sn were synthesized by arc-melting of the elements and subsequent annealing. The structures were refined from single crystal X-ray diffractometer data: ZrPt2Al type, space group P63/mmc, a = 455.1(1), c = 899.3(3) pm, wR2 = 0.0361, 166 F2 values, 9 variables for GdPt2In, and a = 453.2(1), c = 906.5(2) pm, wR2 = 0.0915, 166 F2 values, 9 variables for GdPt2Sn. The platinum and indium (tin) atoms build up threedimensional [Pt2In] and [Pt2Sn] networks with short Pt-In (Pt-Sn) distances and Pt2 dumb-bells (290 and 297 pm in GdPt2In and GdPt2Sn). The gadolinium atoms have coordination number 14 with 8 Pt and 6 In (Sn) neighbors. Magnetic susceptibility measurements on GdPt2In show Curie-Weiss behavior with an experimental magnetic moment of 8.06(2) μB/Gd atom. GdPt2In orders ferromagnetically at 27.7(2) K

Jaccarino and Walker proposed that in certain alloy systems a considered kind of atom attains a constant value of the magnetic moment if it is surrounded by at least a minimum number of nearest-neighbor atoms of a certain kind, and that it is nonmagnetic otherwise. It is shown by ab initio supercell calculations within the LMTO method that the system Nbi−xMox with 1% iron approximately fulfills the Jaccarino-Walker hypothesis, whereas the alloy FexRh1−x does not. The physical mechanism for the destruction of the Fe moment in bcc alloys with 4d and 5d transition metals is elucidated.
