“…Frequently, chemical bonding in ternary rare earth transition metal carbides can be rationalized with simple concepts using the Lewis notation and aiming for electron counts of 18 and 8 for the transition metal and carbon atoms, respectively (7,8,10,15,23,25,26). This is to some extent also possible for Gd Ru C , although the partially occupied sites complicate this account.…”

“…In these carbides the carbon atoms are isolated from each other and occupy octahedral voids formed by the ruthenium atoms. Carbon pairs were found in the structures of Sc RuC (5), R RuC (R"La}Nd, Sm, Gd) (6,7), and GdRuC (8). The carbides R Ru C (R"Dy}Tm) (9), and R Ru C (R"Y, Gd}Lu) (10) have isolated carbon atoms as well as carbon pairs.…”

“…The corresponding values found by us for GdFe 4 P 12 at 4 K are B C = 0.0014 ± 0.0002 T (H C = B C /(l r´l0 ) = 11 ± 2 A´cm ±1 ) and l R = 0.18 ± 0.04 l B . Other ferromagnetic gadolinium compounds with very low coercitivities and remanences include GdFeSi [46], GdRuC 2 [47], GdCoC [48], and Gd 12 Re 5 C 15 [49].…”

The new cubic compound Fe0.5Ni0.5P3 (a = 775.29(5) pm) as well as the known compounds CoP3 and NiP3 were synthesized from the elemental components using tin as a flux. Their skutterudite (CoAs3) type structures were refined from single‐crystal X‐ray data. The new compound GdFe4P12 was prepared by reaction of an alloy Gd1/3Fe2/3 with phosphorus in a tin flux. Its cubic “filled” skutterudite (LaFe4P12 type) structure was refined from single‐crystal X‐ray data: a = 779.49(4) pm, R = 0.019 for 304 structure factors and 11 variable parameters. SmFe4P12 shows Van Vleck paramagnetism while GdFe4P12 is a soft ferromagnet with a Curie temperature of TC = 22(5) K. Both are metallic conductors. The new isotypic polyarsenide NdFe4As12 (a = 830.9(1) pm) was obtained by reacting NdAs2 with iron and arsenic in the presence of a NaCl/KCl flux. The new isotypic polyantimonide Eu0.54(1)Co4Sb12 (a = 909.41(8) pm) was prepared by reaction of EuSb2 with cobalt and antimony. Its structure was refined from single‐crystal X‐ray data to a residual of 0.024 (137 F values, 12 variables). A comparison of the Fe–P and P–P bond lengths in the compounds AFe4P12, where the A atoms (A = Ce, Eu, Gd, Th) have differing valencies, suggests that the Fermi level cuts through Fe–P bonding and P–P antibonding bands.

“…Interestingly, only few isotypic ruthenium and osmium containing carbides have been reported. With ruthenium as transition metal compo-nent the following carbides are known Ln 7 Ru 2 C 11 (Ln = Dy±Tm) [1], LnRu 3 C (Ln = Ce, Dy±Lu) [2,3], GdRuC 2 [4], Ln 3.67 RuC 6 (Ln = La±Nd, Sm) [5], and Ln 10 Ru 10 C 19 (Ln = Gd±Lu) [6]. Preliminary results have been published for the series Ln 12 Ru 7.5 C 20 (Ln = Gd±Er) [7].…”

The new carbides Gd 3.67 RuC 6 and Ln 3.67 OsC 6 (Ln = La±Nd, Sm) were prepared by arc-melting of coldpressed pellets of the elemental components. Their hexagonal (P6 3 /m) La 3.67 FeC 6 type crystal structure was refined from X-ray powder diffraction data of La 3.67 OsC 6 (a = 889.1(1) pm, c = 535.1(1) pm) and Pr 3.67 OsC 6 (a = 874.9(2) pm, c = 523.7(1) pm). The occupancy parameters of one La and one Pr site were refined to 0.35(5) and 0.34(5), respectively, in agreement with the highest possible occupancy for steric reasons of 1/3. The C±C distances in the C 2 pairs are 139(6) pm and 137(3) pm, respectively, indicating double bonds. The environment of the osmium atoms is compatible with the 18-electron rule. The magnetic proper-ties of several carbides were determind with a SQUID magnetometer. The lanthanum compounds La 3.67 RuC 6 and La 3.67 OsC 6 are Pauli paramagnetic. The magnetic properties of the other compounds are dominated by the magnetic moments of the rare earth atoms. Most order ferrimagnetically with Curie temperatures varying between 5(± 3) and 32(± 6) K for Ce 3.67 OsC 6 and Pr 3.67 RuC 6 , respectively. The cerium atoms in Ce 3.67 RuC 6 and Ce 3.67 OsC 6 are essentially trivalent, and the samarium compounds show Van Vleck behavior.Pra È paration, Kristallstruktur und magnetische Eigenschaften von Seltenerd-Ruthenium-und Osmium-Carbiden mit La 3.67 FeC 6 -Struktur Inhaltsu È bersicht. Die neuen Carbide Gd 3.67 RuC 6 und Ln 3.67 OsC 6 (Ln = La±Nd, Sm) wurden durch Aufschmelzen von kaltgepressten Pillen der Elemente im Lichtbogenofen dargestellt. Ihre hexagonale (P6 3 /m) La 3.67 FeC 6 -Struktur wurde aus Ro È ntgen-Pulverdiffraktometerdaten von La 3.67 OsC 6 (a = 889.1(1) pm, c = 535.1(1) pm) und Pr 3.67 OsC 6 (a = 874.9(2) pm, c = 523.7(1) pm) verfeinert. Fu È r die Besetzungsparameter von je einer La-und einer Pr-Lage wurden die Werte 0.35(5) und 0.34(5) erhalten, im Einklang mit der aus sterischen Gru È nden maximal mo È glichen Besetzung von 1/3. Die C±C-Absta È nde in den C 2 -Paaren betragen 139(6) pm bzw. 137(3) pm entsprechend einer Doppelbindung. Die Konfigura-tion der Osmiumatome scheint der 18-Elektronenregel zu entsprechen. Die magnetischen Eigenschaften mehrerer Carbide wurden mit Hilfe eines SQUID-Magnetometers untersucht. Die Lanthanverbindungen La 3.67 RuC 6 und La 3.67 OsC 6 sind Pauli-paramagnetisch. Die magnetischen Eigenschaften der u È brigen Carbide werden durch den Magnetismus der Seltenerdatome bestimmt. Die meisten zeigen Ferrimagnetismus mit Curie-Temperaturen zwischen 5(± 3) und 32(± 6) K fu È r Ce 3.67 RuC 6 bzw. Pr 3.67 RuC 6 . Die Ceratome in Ce 3.67 RuC 6 und Ce 3.67 OsC 6 sind im wesentlichen dreiwertig und die Samariumverbindungen zeigen Van Vleck-Verhalten.
