From the study of the hypothetical series Pb[PbIn_c–2pSb_c]O_6+p (O ? p < 1; 0 ? c < 2), the existence of the cubic pyrochlore Pb₂^II[In_0.5Sb_1.5]O_6.5 has been established.

Die Kristallstruktur von Perowskiten ANiIIMVIO6. II. Das Sr2NiWO6

The Crystal Structure of Perovskites A Ni^IIM^VIO₆. II. Sr₂NiWO₆ The results of an X-ray single crystal study of the perovskite Sr[Ni^IIW^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆, ordered in the octahedral sites, are given. While Sr[Ni^IITe^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆ crystallizes in a monoclinically deformed structure of the perovskite (elpasolite) type, showing a phase transition to a tetragonal lattice at 675 °K, Sr[Ni^IIW^VI]⁽⁶⁾O₆ is tetragonal already at 298°K (space group: C; a = b = 5.559 Å; c = 7.918 Å; Z = 2). The Ni? O distances found for the tungsten compound are nearly identical with those of the tellurium perovskite. In contradiction to crystal field theory very different values of the ligand field parameter Δ (ca. 25%) are observed for these two compounds however. Obviously this effect is caused by the rather different kind of bonding within the NiO₆ polyhedra in the two compounds. On the basis of the structural results the Ni? O-bonding in the two perovskites is discussed in dependence of the next nearest cationic environment.
