Abstract

Single crystals of the mixed alkaline earth platinate, tristrontium magnesium platinum hexaoxide, Sr₃MgPtO₆, were grown from a KOH flux at 1273 K. The compound adopts the rhombohedral K₄CdCl₆ structure type, featuring chains of face-shared, distorted MgO₆ trigonal prisms (Mg site symmetry 32) and PtO₆ octahedra (Pt site symmetry ) surrounded by columns of Sr²⁺ ions (Sr site symmetry 2).
