(Chemical Equation Presented) We report a new family of ternary 111 hexagonal LnAuSb (Ln = La-Nd; Sm) compounds that; with a 19 valence electron count; has one extra electron compared to all other known LnAuZ compounds. LaAuSb; CeAuSb; PrAuSb; NdAuSb; and SmAuSb crystallize in the YPtAs-type structure; and have a doubled unit cell compared to other LnAuZ phases as a result of the buckling of the Au-Sb honeycomb layers to create interlayer Au-Au dimers. The dimers accommodate the one excess electron per Au and thus these new phases can be considered Ln23+(Au-Au)0Sb23-. Band structure; density of states; and crystal orbital calculations confirm this picture; which results in a nearly complete band gap between full and empty electronic states and stable compounds; we can thus present a structural stability phase diagram for the LnAuZ (Z = Ge; As; Sn; Sb; Pb; Bi) family of phases. Those calculations also show that LaAuSb has a bulk Dirac cone below the Fermi level. The YPtAs-type LnAuSb family reported here is an example of the uniqueness of gold chemistry applied to a rigidly closed shell system in an unconventional way. © 2014 American Chemical Society;
