Results of X-ray diffraction studies and magnetic measurements performed on Y{sub 2}Fe{sub 17{minus}x} compounds (M = Mo, V or Ti) and their nitrides are reported. By nitrogenation of the parent alloys, the lattice parameters increase significantly, this fact determining a substantial increase of the Curie temperature. The volume effects on the variation of Curie temperatures in Y{sub 2}Fe{sub 17{minus}x}M{sub x}N{sub y} decrease when increasing M content. The dln{Tc}/dlnV values show a linear dependence on the Curie temperatures. The experimental data are analyzed in a model which supposes that the greatest fraction of iron 3d electrons are localized.
