Abstract
The structural properties of a new ternary germanide of manganese and palladium Pd ∼12Mn ∼4Ge 8 have been investigated. The crystal structure has been determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis : R = 0.084 for 1027 independent reflexions. The structure is of a new type with one formula unit in an orthorhombic unit cell of space group Pnma, having the dimensions : a = 6.910 (1) A ̊ , b = 3.146 (1) A ̊ , c = 16.504 (4) A ̊ . It is closely related to the Fe 2P, Co 2P and Fe 2As type structures. Pd ∼12Mn ∼4Ge 8 is ferromagnetic.
