Oxide pyrochlores — A review

Publisher Summary This review is concerned with the neglected class of inorganic compounds, which contain ions of the same element in two different formal states of oxidation. Although the number of references cited in our review show that many individual examples of this class have been studied, yet they have very rarely been treated as a class, and there has never before, to our knowledge, been a systematic attempt to classify their properties in terms of their electronic and molecular structures. In the past, systems containing an element in two different states of oxidation have gone by various names, the terms “mixed valence,” nonintegral valence,” “mixed oxidation,” “oscillating valency,” and “controlled valency” being used interchangeably. Actually, none of these is completely accurate or all-embracing, but in our hope to avoid the introduction of yet another definition, we have somewhat arbitrarily adopted the phrase “mixed valence” for the description of these systems. The concept of resonance among various valence bond structures is one of the cornerstones of modern organic chemistry.

New Developments in the Chemistry of Diborane and the Borohydrides. I. General Summary1

New high pressure forms of the sesquioxides of holminum, erbium, thulium, ytterbium, lutetium, and yttrium have been obtained by exposure of the C-type sesquioxides to pressures between 25 and 40 kilobars and temperatures between 900° and 1020°C. X-ray diffraction analysis shows that these new high-pressure phases are of the monoclinic B-type which is known for several of the lighter rare-earth sesquioxides (samarium through dysprosium).
