abstract = {The synthesis, crystal structure, magnetic properties, and
europium Mössbauer spectroscopy of the new members of the
9–4–9 Zintl family of Eu9Cd4–xCM2+x–y□ySb9 (CM =
coinage metal: Au, Ag, and Cu) are reported. These compounds
crystallize in the Ca9Mn4Bi9 structure type (9–4–9) with
the 4g interstitial site almost half-occupied by coinage
metals; these are the first members in the 9–4–9 family
where the interstitial positions are occupied by a
monovalent metal. All previously known compounds with this
structure type include divalent interstitials where these
interstitials are typically the same as the transition
metals in the anionic framework. Single-crystal magnetic
susceptibility data indicate paramagnetic behavior for all
three compounds with antiferromagnetic ordering below 10 K
(at 100 Oe) that shifts to lower temperature (<7 K) by
applying a 3 T magnetic field. 151Eu Mössbauer spectra were
collected on polycrystalline powder samples of
Eu9Cd4–xCM2+x–y□ySb9 at 50 and 6.5 K in order to
evaluate the valence of Eu cations. Although the Zintl
formalism states that the five crystallographically distinct
Eu sites in Eu9Cd4–xCM2+x–y□ySb9 should bear Eu2+, the
Mössbauer spectral isomer shifts are clearly indicative of
both 2+ and 3+ valence of the Eu cations with the Cu- and
Au-containing compounds showing higher amounts of Eu3+. This
electronic configuration leads to an excess of negative
charge in these compounds that contradicts the expected
valence-precise requirement of Zintl phases. The spectra
obtained at 6.5 K reveal magnetic ordering for both Eu2+ and
Eu3+. The field dependence of Eu2+ indicates two distinct
magnetic sublattices, with higher and lower fields, and of a
small field for Eu3+. The site symmetry of the five Eu sites
is not distinguishable from the Mössbauer data.},
