The coordination and complex formation of some three-valent lanthanoids (Er, Tb, Sm, La) in aqueous perchlorate and selenate solutions have been determined from X-ray scattering measurements. Isomorphous substitution withyttrium as the substituent was used for the analysis of the data for Er3+ and Tb3+, which have ionic radii close tothat of Y3+. Inner-sphere complexes are formed with the selenate ion. The Ln-O-Se angle is about 140, which corresponds to monodentate bonding. No indication of inner-sphere complex formation is found in the perchlorate solutions. The data are consistent with a coordination number of 8 in the solutions. The root-mean-square variations in the corresponding Ln-H20 distances, as determined from comparisons with calculated peaks, are 0.09 and 0.11 Á for the perchlorate and the selenate solutions, respectively. A second coordination sphere is clearly indicated in the RDFs.The coordination of the lanthanoid ions in solution has been the subject of a large number of investigations, but the results have often been contradictory. Values obtained for hydration numbers in aqueous solution seem to depend on the method used, 1· 2 and studies of complex formation by thermodynamic and transport properties and by spectroscopic methods often lead to different results as to the formation of inner-or outer^ sphere complexes. 3 Diffraction methods, which can give direct information on in-teratomic distances and their frequencies in solution, have been used in some investigations of the hydration numbers but hardly at all for the study of complex formation. In an early X-ray diffractionstudy of erbium chloride and iodide solutions Brady4 estimated the hydration number for Er3+ to be about 6. Wertz and co-workers5 6" 7 found a value of 8.0 throughout the series in concentrated chloride and bromide solutions. Ha-benschuss and Spedding8 determined fromX-ray scattering measurements in 3 M chloride solutions that the ionsLa3+ through Nd3+ are nine-coordinated and those from Tb3+ to Lu3+ are eight-coordinated, while those between Nd3+ and Tb3+ have intermediate values. A neutron diffraction investigation of neo-dymium chloride solutions with use of isotopic substitution led to 8.5±0.2 water molecules in the first coordination sphere. 9 The X-ray data in these investigations were analyzed from the radial distribution functions by using the first peak for an estimation of the hydration number, assuming that no inner-sphere
