Structure d'un nouveau sulfure ternaire de chrome : CrSbS3

CrSbS 3 can be prepared by reaction of the elements in stoichiometric proportions at 1,030 K. This compouncl crystallizes in an orthorhombic system with the cell parameters a=8.6652 (5) A, b=3.6188 (3) A, and c=12.8720 (9) A. The structural determination was conducted on the P n m a space group with Z=4 (R F =3.7%. R wF =2.9%). The magnetic properties of the compound are discussed taking into account the geometric parameters
