Abstract

AbstractThe one-dimensional compounds Sr3MgPtO6, Sr3MgIrO6, Sr3MgRhO6, Sr3GdRhO6, have been synthesized and structurally characterized by Rietveld refinement of powder X-ray diffraction data. All four compounds are isostructural with the rhombohedral K4CdCl6-type structure. The structure consists of infinite one-dimensional chains of alternating face-shared MO6 octahedra (M = Pt, Ir, Rh) and M′O6 (M′ = Gd, Mg) trigonal prisms. The strontium cations are located in a distorted square antiprismatic environment. Magnetic susceptibility data show that both Sr3MgIrO6 and Sr3MgRhO6 obey the Curie-Weiss law with θ = −6(1) K, and θ= −15(3)K, respectively. Sr3GdRhO6 obeys the Curie law with μeff = 7.80 B.M, consistent with an oxidation state of +3 for both rhodium and gadolinium.
