Abstract

The ternary alkali metal rhodium and iridium hydrides were synthesized by the reaction of alkali metal hydride with transition metal powder in a pure hydrogen atmosphere. The crystal structures were determined by X-ray investigations on powdered samples and elastic neutron diffraction experiments on the deuterated compounds. The isotypic atomic arrangements (space group Prima) contain isolated [RhH 6] 3-- and [IrH 6] 3--octahedra which are separated by the alkali metal ions.
