Pure yttrium was reacted with pure hydrogen. The two reacted exothermically at room temperature up to the compound YH/sub 2/. Beyond the dihydride, additional hydrogen was taken up only slowly and at increased temperature. The maximum hydrogen content corresponded to the formula YH/sub 2.7/ . It was not possible to prepare the trinydride. Debye-Scherrer diagrams showed that the metal atoms in the hydride form a cubic face-centered structure. On the basis of the lattice constant found 5.199 A, YH/sub 2/ is assigned to the series of lanthanum dihydrides below gadolinium. (J.S.R.)
