Abstract
Cs2KTbCl6 and Cs2KEuCl6 from the elpasolite family (A(2)BLnX(6)) were obtained by slowly evaporating to dryness a hot aqueous HCl solution o f the appropriate chlorides and characterized by powder X-ray diffract ion. Using WYR3 program software it was found that the title compounds are cubic and isostructural to Rb2NaTmCl6. Cell parameters for Cs2KTb Cl6 and Cs2KEuCl6 are a = 11.1224(3) Angstrom and a = 11.1633(3) Angst rom, respectively. The space group for both compounds is Fm3m. (C) 199 7 Academic Press.
