Abstract
Topotactic ion exchange is ubiquitous in the preparation of many metastable solids with layered structures. In recent times, the scope of chimie-douce ion exchange has been extended to quasi-2D and -3D structures including nanocrystals. The low-temperature solid-state exchange is yet another unique synthetic tool to access preconceived structures for the rational design of solids. Although rational synthesis using inorganic synthons is rare, few examples exist among inorganic solids with layered structures. Herein, we extend the scope further by transforming a simple perovskite (ABO3) into a high-pressure quadruple (AA'3B4O12) perovskite. The transformation is achieved at moderate temperatures and ambient pressure via a solid-state metathesis reaction, wherein the transition metal adopts a new A-cation coordination upon exchange. Such coordination switching upon ion exchange will open up possibilities for functionality-driven structural transformations and the rational design of new solids.

Abstract
Despite the tremendous interest in halide perovskite solar cells, the structural reasons that cause the all-inorganic perovskite CsPbI3 to be unstable at room temperature remain mysterious, especially since many tolerance-factor-based approaches predict CsPbI3 should be stable as a perovskite. Here single-crystal X-ray diffraction and X-ray pair distribution function (PDF) measurements characterize bulk perovskite CsPbI3 from 100 to 295 K to elucidate its thermodynamic instability. While Cs occupies a single site from 100 to 150 K, it splits between two sites from 175 to 295 K with the second site having a lower effective coordination number, which, along with other structural parameters, suggests that Cs rattles in its coordination polyhedron. PDF measurements reveal that on the length scale of the unit cell, the PbI octahedra concurrently become greatly distorted, with one of the IPbI angles approaching 82° compared to the ideal 90°. The rattling of Cs, low number of CsI contacts, and high degree of octahedral distortion cause the instability of perovskite-phase CsPbI3. These results reveal the limitations of tolerance factors in predicting perovskite stability and provide detailed structural information that suggests methods to engineer stable CsPbI3 -based solar cells.

Abstract
Rattling phenomena have been observed in materials characterized by a large cage structure but not in a simple ABO3-type perovskite because the size mismatch, if it exists, can be relieved by octahedral rotations. Here, we demonstrate that a stoichiometric perovskite oxide NaWO3, prepared under high pressure, exhibits anharmonic phonon modes associated with low-energy rattling vibrations, leading to suppressed thermal conductivity. The structural analysis and the comparison with the ideal perovskite KWO3 without rattling behavior reveal that the presence of two crystallographic Na1 (2 a) and Na2 (6 b) sites in NaWO3 (space group Im3̅) accompanied by three in-phase WO6 octahedral (a+a+a+) rotations generates an open space Δ ∼ 0.5 Å for the latter site, which is comparable with those of well-known cage compounds of clathrates and filled skutterudites. The observed rattling in NaWO3 is distinct from a quadruple perovskite AA'3B4O12 (A, A': transition metals) where the A (2 a) site with lower multiplicity is the rattler. The present finding offers a general guide to induce rattling of atoms in pristine ABO3 perovskites.

Abstract
The quadruple perovskites AA'3B4X12 are characterized by an extremely wide variety of intriguing physical properties, which makes them attractive candidates for various applications. Using group-theoretical analysis, possible 1:3 A-site-ordered low-symmetry phases have been found. They can be formed from a parent Pm{\bar 3}m perovskite structure (archetype) as a result of real or hypothetical (virtual) phase transitions due to different structural mechanisms (orderings and displacements of atoms, tilts of octahedra). For each type of low-symmetry phase, the full set of order parameters (proper and improper order parameters), the calculated structure, including the space group, the primitive cell multiplication, splitting of the Wyckoff positions and the structural formula were determined. All ordered phases were classified according to the irreducible representations of the space group of the parent phase (archetype) and systematized according to the types of structural mechanisms responsible for their formation. Special attention is paid to the structural mechanisms of formation of the low-symmetry phase of the compounds known from experimental data, such as: CaCu3Ti4O12, CaCu3Ga2Sn2O12, CaMn3Mn4O12, Ce1/2Cu3Ti4O12, LaMn3Mn4O12, BiMn3Mn4O12 and others. For the first time, the phenomenon of variability in the choice of the proper order parameters, which allows one to obtain the same structure by different group-theoretical paths, is established. This phenomenon emphasizes the fundamental importance of considering the full set of order parameters in describing phase transitions. Possible transition paths from the archetype with space group Pm{\bar 3}m to all 1:3 A-site-ordered perovskites are illustrated using the Bärnighausen tree formalism. These results may be used to identify new phases and interpret experimental results, determine the structural mechanisms responsible for the formation of low-symmetry phases as well as to understand the structural genesis of the perovskite-like phases. The obtained non-model group-theoretical results in combination with crystal chemical data and first-principles calculations may be a starting point for the design of new functional materials with a perovskite structure.

Abstract
A-site-ordered AA'3B4O12 quadruple perovskites (with twelve-fold coordinated A and square-planar coordinated A' sites) were discovered in 1967. Since then, there have been considerable research efforts to synthesize and characterize new members of such perovskites. These efforts have led to the discoveries of many interesting physical and chemical properties, such as inter-site charge transfer and disproportionation, giant dielectric constant, multiferroic properties, reentrant structural transitions and high catalytic activity. The first member of A-site columnar-ordered A2A'A''B4O12 quadruple perovskites (with ten-fold coordinated A, square-planar coordinated A' and tetrahedrally coordinated A'' sites), CaFeTi2O6, was discovered in 1995, and for 19 years it was the only representative of this family. In the last few years, A2A'A''B4O12 perovskites have experienced rapid growth. Herein, we present a brief overview of the recent developments in this field and highlight an under-investigated status and great potential of A2A'A''B4O12, which can be prepared mainly at high pressure and high temperature. The presence of the A'' site gives an additional degree of freedom in designing such perovskites. The A2A'A''B4O12 perovskites are discussed in comparison with well-known AA'3B4O12 perovskites.

Abstract
Quadruple perovskite oxides AA'3B4O12 demonstrate a rich variety of structural and electronic properties. A large number of constituent elements for A/A'/B-site cations can be introduced using the ultra-high-pressure synthesis method. Development of novel functional materials consisting of earth-abundant elements plays a crucial role in current materials science. In this paper, functional properties, especially oxygen reaction catalysis, for quadruple perovskite oxides CaCu3Fe4O12 and AMn7O12 (A = Ca, La) composed of earth-abundant elements are reviewed.
