Abstract
New ternary stannide YbPdSn2 was synthesized from the elements in a sealed tantalum tube in a high-frequency furnace. YbPdSn2 was characterized through X-ray powder and single crystal data: Cmcm, a = 442.4(2), b = 1108.6(3), c = 738.4(2) pm, wR2 = 0.0450, 317 F2 values, and 16 variable parameters. YbPdSn2 crystallizes with the MgCuAl2 type structure, a ternary ordered variant of the Re3B type. The tin sublattice of YbPdSn2 corresponds to a distorted lonsdaleitelike arrangement with Sn-Sn distances varying from 303 to 336 pm.
