Zeitschrift für anorganische und allgemeine Chemie, Volume 652, Issue 14, 23 September 2026.The RE4Al13Pt9 series has been extended to RE = Y, La‐Nd, Sm, Gd‐Dy. The compounds have been investigated by X‐ray diffraction and magnetic susceptibility measurements. Of the RE4Al13Pt9 series, the RE = Ce, Pr, and Eu representatives were previously reported. In this work we extend the series to RE = Y, La‐Nd, Sm, Gd‐Dy.
