Abstract

Lattice parameters of deuterated scandium triacetate have been determined by high-resolution neutron diffraction at temperatures between 5 and 200 K. Two phase transitions were located at 66 and 159 K in agreement with a calorimetric experiment. A large anisotropy of the thermal expansivity was found and it is discussed in terms of the different nature of the chemical bonds combining the molecules in the crystal.
