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.

Abstract Phase formation in the solid solution TbNiIn1−x Ga x at 873 K was investigated in the full concentration range by means of powder X-ray diffraction and EDX analysis. The samples were synthesized by arc-melting of the pure metals with subsequent annealing at 873 K for one month. The influence of the substitution of indium by gallium on the type of structure and solubility was studied. The solubility ranges have been determined and changes of the unit cell parameters were calculated on the basis of powder X-ray diffraction data: TbNiIn1–0.4Ga0–0.6 (ZrNiAl-type structure, space group P 6 ‾ 2 m $P‾{6}2m$ , a = 0.74461(8)–0.72711(17) and c = 0.37976(5)–0.37469(8) nm); TbNiIn0.2–0Ga0.8–1.0 (TiNiSi-type structure, space group Pnma, а = 0.68950(11)–0.68830(12), b = 0.43053(9)–0.42974(6), с = 0.74186(10)–0.73486(13) nm).

Abstract Ag2FeGeS4 was synthesized as a phase-pure and highly crystalline product by mechanochemical milling from the binary sulfides and iron metal, followed by annealing in H2S atmosphere. The structure evaluation was carried out using X-ray powder diffraction with subsequent Rietveld refinements. As Fe and Ge atoms are not distinguishable using conventional X-ray methods, the chalcopyrite-type structure (space group I 4 ‾ 2 d $I‾{4}2d$ ), exhibiting a statistical distribution of Fe and Ge on Wyckoff position 4b, was considered. However, quantum-chemical calculations at hybrid density-functional level indicate that mechanochemically prepared Ag2FeGeS4 crystallizes in the kesterite-type structure (space group I 4 ‾ $I‾{4}$ ) where the cations are arranged in an ordered way. Ag2FeGeS4 is a further example of a mechanochemically prepared compound differing structurally from the commonly known polymorph exhibiting the stannite type (solid-state route).

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.

Nb0.89Fe0.93Te2 and Ta0.77Fe0.90Te2 were prepared by chemical transport reactions. The crystal structures of both compounds were determined using X-ray single crystal methods. The structures of the layer compounds Nb0.89Fe0.93Te2 (Pmna, Z = 2, a = 7.951(1) Å, b = 7.241(1) A, c = 6.233(1) Å) and Ta0.77Fe0.90Te2 (Pmna, Z = 2, a = 7.890(2) Å, b = 7.252(2) Å, c = 6.192(1) Å) are based on a hexagonal close packing of Te atoms. Approximately one-half of the octahedral holes in this packing are occupied by Nb (Ta) atoms, about one-quarter of the tetrahedral holes are occupied by Fe atoms. The relationship to the NiAs structure type is discussed.

Single crystals of Sr2H3I andBa5H2I3.9(2)O2 were obtained by reacting Sr or Ba, respectively, with dried and sublimed NH4I in a 4 : 1 molar ratio in silica-jacketed Nb ampoules for 13 h at 1200 K. The crystal structures of the new compounds have been determined by means of single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Sr2H3I crystallizes in a stuffed anti-CdI2 structure isotypic to Ba2H3Cl in the space group P3m1 (no. 164) with the lattice parameters a = 426.0(1) and c = 774.9(2) pm, while Ba5H2I3.9(2)O2 crystallizes in a new structure type in the space group Cmcm (no. 63) with the lattice parameters a = 1721.0(2), b = 1452.5(2) and c = 639.03(9) pm. The structural results for Sr2H3I are corroborated by EUTAX calculations. For the disordered compound Ba5H2I3.9(2)O2, EUTAX calculations on an approximated, ordered structural model were used to find possible insights into the disorder
