Abstract
Buddery and Welch1 have published approximate compositions for a number of intermediate phases in binary system of boron with the platinum metals. The phases were identified by X-ray powder techniques, but crystallographical data were given only for a few of them. During the past decade the crystal structures of a number of binary platinum metal borides have been determined, and in Table 1 we have tentatively tried to identify the phases originally reported by Buddery and Welch with the more completely characterized intermediate phases in the ruthenium–boron, osmium–boron and iridium–boron systems.
