Abstract
A new structure which is similar to that of many known binary early-transition-metal phosphides, sulfides, and selenides has been found in the ternary Zr-Nb-P system. The compound Zr[sub 6.45]Nb[sub 4.55]P[sub 4] was synthesized using high-temperature techniques and characterized through X-ray single-crystal experiments. The space group is Immm with lattice parameters a = 15.917 (1) [angstrom], b = 9.5684 (9) [angstrom], and c = 3.5892 (3) [angstrom]. Bond order calculations revealed the approximate metal site occupancies and anomalous scattering allowed refinement of the metal site occupancies. 21 refs., 1 fig., 4 tabs.
