Abstract
The crystal structure of Pb2Fe(CN)(6) and Sn2Fe(CN)(6) has been first deter mined and refined using the Rietveld method with combined Cu-K alpha (1) X- ray and constant-wavelength neutron powder diffraction data in space group P-3 (147, Z = 1). The unit cell constants are a = 7.1346(1) and 7.1805(1) A ngstrom, c = 5.4531(2) and 5.3639(1) Angstrom, respectively. The compounds are layered, groups of three nearest [Fe(CN)(6)](4-)-complexes are joined t o layers by means of Pb or Sn atoms. The same Pb or Sn atoms (c.n. = 3+3) j oint three nearest complexes from the next layer. The jointing goes through 'nitrogen-lead(tin)-nitrogen' bonds.
