A structural study by means of X-ray and electron diffraction of intermediate oxides between Eu2Mo3O12 and Eu2W3O12 shows the existence of a new Eu2(Mo1−xWx)3O12 solid solution with the scheelite structural type. The essential feature of the x = 1/3 and x = 2/3 compounds is the presence of isolated oxygen tetrahedra, in which, according to X-ray and electron diffraction data, W and Mo are randomly distributed. Eu atoms occupy distorted square antiprisms sites.
