New nickel-deficient stannides Eu2Ni2−xSn5 were synthesized by induction melting of the elements in sealed tantalum tubes. The solid solution was studied by X-ray powder diffraction and two crystal structures were refined on the basis of X-ray diffractometer data: Cmcm, a = 466.03(4), b = 3843.1(8), c = 462.92(9) pm, wR2 = 0.0469, 692 F2 values, 39 variables for Eu2Ni1.49(1)Sn5 and a = 466.11(9), b = 3820.1(8), c = 462.51(9) pm, wR2 = 0.0358, 695 F2 values, 39 variables for Eu2Ni1.35(1)Sn5. This new structure type can be considered as an intergrowth structure of CaBe2Ge2- and CrB-related slabs. The striking structural motifs are nickel-centered square pyramids which are condensed via common corners and edges. The layers of condensed NiSn5 units are separated by the europium atoms. The Ni1 sites within the CaBe2Ge2 slabs show significant defects which leads to split positions for one tin site. Eu2Ni1.50Sn5 shows Curie-Weiss behavior and an experimental magnetic moment of 7.74(1) μB / Eu atom, indicating stable divalent europium, as is also evident from 151Eu Mössbauer spectra. Antiferromagnetic ordering is detected at 3.5 K.
