Abstract
Single crystals of Sr5Sb3 in the orthorhombic form (beta-Yb5Sb3 struct ure type) were obtained as a minor product of a reaction of the elemen ts and Mn in a welded Nb container. To date only the hexagonal form (M n5Si3 structure type) of Sr5Sb3 has been reported. The orthorhombic ph ase of Sr5Sb3 has been synthesized in high yield by the reaction of st oichiometric amounts of the elements in an alumina crucible, sealed in a quartz tube.
