Abstract The title compounds have been synthesized by reaction of the elements in sealed tantalum crucibles in a muffle furnace using special annealing sequences. The crystal structures of YbNi2.31Al2.69 (R1 = 0.0100 for 212 F 2 values and 18 variables) and for ErNi2.23Al2.77 (R1 = 0.0154 for 255 F 2 values and 18 variables) were refined from single crystal X-ray data. They belong to the YNi2Al3 type (i3 superstructure of CaCu5) with the following crystallographic parameters: space group P 6 / m m m $P6/mmm$ , Pearson’s symbol hP18, Z = 3, a = 8.2723(12), c = 4.0672(8) Å, V = 241.03(8) Å3 for YbNi2.31Al2.69 and a = 8.9109(13), c = 4.0669(8) Å, V = 279.66(8) Å3 for ErNi2.23Al2.77. The crystal chemical discussion is supported by electronic structure calculations.

Abstract Single crystals of a new samarium platinum indide have been synthesized in a high-frequency furnace under flowing argon atmosphere. The crystal structure of SmPt2In2 was determined from single-crystal X-ray data (R1 = 0.0416 for 1049 F values and 63 variables). It belongs to the CePt2In2 structure type with the following crystallographic parameters: P21/m, mP20, Z = 4, a = 10.0561(8), b = 4.4214(2), c = 10.1946(8) Å, β = 116.492(5)°, V = 405.68(5) Å3. Physical properties were studied and the crystal chemical discussion is supported by electronic structure calculations.
