A series of new mixed rare-earth and selenium oxychlorides with composition LnSeO3Cl (Ln = La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Yb, or Y) were prepared by annealing together LnOCl and SeO2 in sealed silica tubes. The resulting compounds were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction. The unit cell parameters of the phases were determined. Lanthanum—europium oxychlorides crystallized in the tetragonal system to give the Sillen phases analogously to tellurium compounds with the similar formula, whereas Tb—Yb and Y oxychlorides crystallized in the orthorhombic system. It is likely that the latter oxychlorides are not layered compounds. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
