Abstract: | On an Alkaline-Earth Oxopalladate containing Pd6O12 Rings: CaBa2Pd3O6 CaBa2Pd3O6 was prepared for the first time and investigated by X-ray single crystal technique. It is isotypic to NaBa2Cu3O6 and crystallizes with orthorhombic symmetry, space group D -Fmmm, a = 8.717, b = 11.47, c = 14.933 Å; Z = 2. Typical features of the crystal structure are edge connected square planar PdO4 polygones, forming isolated Pd6O12 rings. |
