Abstract
THE existence of several phosphides of the platinum metals has been reported by Biltz et al. 1. The knowledge of the physical and chemical properties of these phases is, however, very meagre. Crystal structures have been determined for only three phosphides, namely, Rh2P and Ir2P with the anti-fluorite structure2 and PtP2 with the pyrite structure3.
