The scheelite-type structure of rubidium periodate, RbIO4, has been confirmed and refined from single-crystal X-ray data at two temperatures. The compound crystallizes tetragonally, space group I41/a, with a = 5.897(1), c = 12.876(3) Å at 150 K and a = 5.910(1), c = 13.021(3) Å at 297 K, respectively. Only small changes are observed for the structural parameters at low temperatures, but a significant decrease could be observed in the anisotropic displacement factors.

AbstractThe indium-rich intermetallic compound CaPtIn4 is formed in a peritectic reaction of CaPtIn2 and indium metal at T = 670 K (14 days annealing). CaPtIn4 crystallizes with the YNiAl4-type structure, space group Cmcm, which was refined from single crystal X-ray diffractometer data: a = 446.3(5), b = 1659.50(18), c = 756.8(8) pm, wR2 = 0.0646, 640 F2 values and 24 variables. Geometrically one can describe the CaPtIn4 structure as an intergrowth variant of CaPtIn2 (MgCuAl2 type) and indium slabs. The three-dimensional [PtIn4] polyanionic network shows short Pt–In distances of 269–280 pm and a broader range of In–In distances (304–378 pm) within substantially distorted In@In8 cubes.

New intermetallic compounds RE4TCd (RE = Y, La-Nd, Sm, Gd-Tm, Lu; T = Ni, Pd, Ir, Pt) were synthesized by melting of the elements in sealed tantalum tubes in a highfrequency furnace. They crystallize with the Gd4RhIn-type structure, space group F 4̄3m, Z = 16. The four gadolinium compounds were characterized by single crystal X-ray diffractometer data: a = 1361.7(1) pm, wR2 = 0.062, 456 F2 values, 19 variables for Gd4NiCd; a = 1382.1(2) pm, wR2 = 0.077, 451 F2 values, 19 variables for Gd4PdCd; a = 1363.6(2) pm, wR2 = 0.045, 494 F2 values, 19 variables for Gd4IrCd; a = 1379.0(1) pm, wR2 = 0.045, 448 F2 values, 19 variables for Gd4PtCd. The rare earth atoms build up transition metal-centered trigonal prisms which are condensed via common corners and edges, leading to three-dimensional adamantane-related networks. The cadmium atoms form Cd4 tetrahedra which fill voids left in the prisms’ network.

The crystal structure of the low-temperature (LT) modification of LaBO3 has been redetermined from single-crystal X-ray data; the resulting structure confirms the previous study [Abdullaev, Dzhafarov & Mamedov (1976). Azerbaidzhanskii Khim. Zh. pp. 117–120], but with improved precision. LT-LaBO3 crystallizes in space group Pnma and adopts the aragonite-type structure. Except for one O atom, which is situated on a general position, all other atoms (one La, one B and a second O atom) lie on mirror planes. The structure is composed of LaO9 polyhedra with an average La—O distance of 2.593 Å and trigonal BO3 groups with an average B—O distance of 1.373 Å. Slight anisotropies of the thermal vibrations of La and B atoms suggest that the electrostatic La...La and La...B interactions across the shared edges are weak.

Abstract EuPdSn and EuPtSn were prepared from the elements in tantalum tubes at 1070 K and investigated by X-ray diffraction on both powder as well as single crystals. They crystallize with the TiNiSi type structure of space group Pnma and with Z = 4 formula units per cell. Both structures were refined from single-crystal diffractometer data: a = 751.24(9), b = 469.15(6), c = 804.31(9) pm, V = 0.2835(1) nm3 for EuPdSn, and a = 753.38(7), b = 467.72(4), c = 793.08(7) pm, V = 0.2795(1) nnr for EuPtSn. The structures consist of three-dimensional [PdSn] and [PtSn] polyanionic networks in which the europium atoms are embedded. The crystal chemistry of these stannides is briefly discussed

AbstractThe new compounds A4[Nb6Cl12(N3)6](H2O)2 (A = Rb, Cs) were synthesized from In4[Nb6Cl12Cl6] by substituting six terminal Cl ligands and the In+ ions in methanolic solution. An X-ray structure refinement was performed on single-crystal data of Rb4[Nb6Cl12(N3)6](H2O)2 (1) (space group P1̄, Z = 1, a = 912.5(1) pm, b = 937.2(1) pm, c = 1062.0(1) pm, α = 96.88(2)°, β = 101.89(1)°, γ = 101.44(2)°) and Cs4[Nb6Cl12(N3)6](H2O)2 (2) (space group PI, Z = 1, a = 920.9(5) pm, b = 947.9(7) pm, c = 1091.8(7) pm, α = 96.89(6)°, β = 103.35(5)°, γ = 101.60(5)°. Each of the centrosymmetric [Nb6Cl12(N3)6]4- ions of the isotypic compounds contains six terminal azide groups at the corners of the octahedral niobium cluster (d̄Nb-N = 226(1) pm (1), 225(1) pm (2), bond angles Nb-N-N 120-127°). The [Nb6Cl12(N3)6]4- ions are linked via Rb-N and Rb-Cl interactions of the Rb+ ions to form a three-dimensional structure. Crystals of the compounds react explosively on heating or mechanical pressure.

Petzite, Ag3AuTe2, crystallizes in the space group I4132, which is a Sohncke type of space group where chiral crystal structures can occur. The structure refinement of petzite reported long ago [Frueh (1959). Am. Mineral. 44, 693–701] did not provide any information about the absolute structure. A new single-crystal X-ray diffraction refinement has now been performed on a sample from Lake View Mine, Golden Mile, Kalgoorlie, Australia, which has resulted in a reliable absolute structure [a Flack parameter of 0.05 (3)], although this corresponds to the opposite enantiomorph reported previously. The minimum Te–Te distance is 3.767 (3) Å, slightly shorter than the van der Waals bonding distance, which suggests a weak interaction between the two chalcogens. XANES spectra near the Au and Te L III edges suggest that the chemical-bonding character of Au in petzite is more metallic than in other gold minerals.
