Abstract

The future of subnitride chemistry appears promising: M₆ octahedra with a central N atom have been detected in the new compound Na₁₆Ba₆N and in the compound hitherto described as “Ag₈Ca₃”; the latter is actually the isotypic Ag₁₆Ca₆N (with 0.7% N)! In these compounds the M₆N octahedra are embedded in a matrix of Na and Ag, respectively. Numerous phases with the Ag₈Ca₃ structure such as Ni₆Si₂M₃ and Ni₆Al₂M₃ (M = rare‐earth metal) may likewise be stabilized by interstitial atoms.
