Abstract
Paramagnetic Mn2+ ions have been incorporated into CdTiF6 . 6H2O, ZnTi F6 . 6H2O and CoTiF6 . 6H2O single crystals, and EPR spectra have been utilized to investigate the structural phase transitions in these cry stals. They are first order in nature with a marked hysteresis in the case of CoTiF6 . 6H2O and are attributed to hindering of rotation of t he [M(H2O)6] as well as (TiF6) groups.
