T1 - Decomposition of single-source precursors under high-temperature highpressure to access osmium–platinum refractory alloys JF - Journal of alloys compounds N2 - Thermal decomposition of (NH4)2[OsxPt1-xCl6] as single-source precursors for Os-Pt binary alloys has been investigated under ambient and high pressure up to 40 GPa. Thermal decomposition of mixed-metal (NH4)2[OsxPt1-xCl6] precursor in hydrogen atmosphere (reductive environment) under ambient pressure results in formation of β-trans[Pt(NH3)2Cl2] and α-trans-[Pt(NH3)2Cl2] crystalline intermediates as well as single and twophase Os—Pt binary alloys. For the first time, direct thermal decomposition of coordination compound under pressure has been investigated. A formation of pure metallic alloys from single-source precursors under pressure has been shown. Miscibility between fcc- and hcpstructured alloys has been probed up to 50 GPa by in situ high-pressure X-ray diffraction. Miscibility gap between fcc- and hcp-structured alloys does not change its positions with pressure up to at least 50 GPa.

T1 - Synthesis of arsenopyrite-type rhodium pernitride RhN2 from a single-source azide precursor JF - European Journal of Inorganic Chemistry N2 - Nitrogen-rich noble metal nitrides possess unique mechanical and catalytic properties, therefore their synthesis and characterization is of interest for fundamental solid state chemistry and materials science. In this study we have synthesized a singlesource precursor [Rh(NH3)6]3(N3)5Cl4 (Rh:N ratio 1:11). Its controlled decomposition in a laser-heated diamond anvil cell at 39 GPa resulted in a formation of rhodium pernitride, RhN2. According to the results of single-crystal X-ray diffraction RhN2 has arsenopyrite structure type crystal structure previously unknown for this compound (P21/c (no. 14).

A1 - Yusenko, Kirill T1 - Equations of state of rhodium, iridium and their alloys up to 70 GPa JF - Journal of Alloys and Compounds N2 - Knowledge of the compressional and thermal behaviour of metals and alloys is of a high fundamental and applied value. In this work, we studied the behaviour of Ir, Rh, and their fcc-structured alloys, Ir0.42Rh0.58 and Ir0.26Os0.05Pt0.31Rh0.23Ru0.15, up to 70 GPa using the diamond anvil cell technique with synchrotron X-ray diffraction. We found that all these materials are structurally stable upon room-temperature hydrostatic compression in the whole pressure interval, as well as upon heating to 2273 K both at ambient and high pressure. Rh, Ir0.42Rh0.58 and Ir0.26Os0.05Pt0.31Rh0.23Ru0.15 were investigated under static compression for the first time. According to our data, the compressibility of Ir, Rh, fcc–Ir0.42Rh0.58, and fcc Ir0.26Os0.05Pt0.31Rh0.23Ru0.15, can be described with the 3rd order Birch-Murnaghan equation of state with the following parameters: V0 = 14.14(6) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 341(10) GPa, and B0' = 4.7(3); V0 = 13.73(7) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 301(9) GPa, and B0' = 3.1(2); V0 = 13.90(8) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 317(17) GPa, and B0' = 6.0(5); V0 = 14.16(9) Å3·atom−1, B0 = 300(22) GPa, B0' = 6(1), where V0 is the unit cell volume, B0 and B0' – are the bulk modulus and its pressure derivative.
