X-Ray studies in the ternary system Ti-Cu-Hg revealed the
existence of a new phase of the composition TiCuHg2. The cubic
unit cell has a lattice parameter a = 6.155 A and conta ins appr. 3
formula units. The crystal structure was determined from x-ray
powder diffraction data and found to belong to the ordered B 32
structure type. The density measurements indicate that the structure
is only 710/o filled
