Abstract
Binary metal hydrides can act as low-temperature reducing agents for complex oxides in the solid state, facilitating the synthesis of anion-deficient oxide or oxyhydride phases. The reaction of LaSrCoRuO6, with CaH2 in a sealed tube yields the face-centered cubic phase LaSrCoRuO3.2H1.9. The reaction with LiH under similar conditions converts LaSrCoRuO6 to a mixture of tetragonal LaSrCoRuO4.8H1.2 and cubic LaSrCoRuO3.3H2.13. The formation of the LaSrCoRuOxHy oxyhydride phases proceeds directly from the parent oxide, with no evidence for anion-deficient LaSrCoRuO6-x intermediates, in contrast with many other topochemically synthesized transition-metal oxyhydrides. However, the reaction between LaSrCoRuO6 and LiH under flowing argon yields a mixture of LaSrCoRuO5 and the infinite layer phase LaSrCoRuO4. The change to all-oxide products when reactions are performed under flowing argon is attributed to the lower hydrogen partial pressure under these conditions. The implications for the reaction mechanism of these topochemical transformations is discussed along with the role of the hydrogen partial pressure in oxyhydride synthesis. Magnetization measurements indicate the LaSrCoRuOxHy phases exhibit local moments on Co and Ru centers, which are coupled antiferromagnetically. In contrast, LaSrCoRuO4 exhibits ferromagnetic behavior with a Curie temperature above 350 K, which can be rationalized on the basis of superexchange coupling between the Co1+ and Ru2+ centers.

Abstract
Perovskite oxyhydrides have attracted recent attention due to their intriguing properties such as ionic conductivity and catalysis, but their repertoire is still restricted compared to perovskite oxynitrides and oxyfluorides. Historically, perovskite oxyhydrides have been prepared mostly by topochemical reactions and high-pressure (HP) reactions, while in this study, we employed a mechanochemical (MC) approach, which enables the synthesis of a series of ABO2H-type oxyhydrides, including those with the tolerance factor (t) much smaller than 1 (e.g., SrScO2H with t = 0.936) which cannot be obtained by HP synthesis. The octahedral tilting, often present in perovskite oxides, does not occur, suggesting that the lack of π-symmetry of the H 1s orbital and the large polarization destabilize tilted low-symmetry structures. Interestingly, SrCrO2H (t = 0.997), previously reported with the HP method, was not achieved with the MC method. A comparative analysis revealed a correlation between the feasibility of MC reactions and the (calculated) shear modulus of the starting reagents (binary oxides and hydrides). Notably, this indicator is not exclusive to oxyhydride perovskites but extends to oxide perovskites (SrMO3). This study demonstrates that MC synthesis offers unique opportunities not only to expand the compositional space in oxyhydrides in various structural types but also to provide a guide for the choice of starting materials for the synthesis of other compounds.

Abstract
Complex transition-metal oxides exhibit a wide variety of chemical and physical properties which are a strong function the local electronic states of the transition-metal centres, as determined by a combination of metal oxidation state and local coordination environment. Topochemical reduction of the double perovskite oxide, LaSrCoRuO6 , using Zr, yields LaSrCoRuO5 . This reduced phase contains an ordered array of apex-linked square-based pyramidal Ru3+ O5 , square-planar Co1+ O4 and octahedral Co3+ O6 units, consistent with the coordination-geometry driven disproportionation of Co2+ . Coordination-geometry driven disproportionation of d7 transition-metal cations (e.g. Rh2+ , Pd3+ , Pt3+ ) is common in complex oxides containing 4d and 5d metals. However, the weak ligand field experienced by a 3d transition-metal such as cobalt leads to the expectation that d7+ Co2+ should be stable to disproportionation in oxide environments, so the presence of Co1+ O4 and Co3+ O6 units in LaSrCoRuO5 is surprising. Low-temperature measurements indicate LaSrCoRuO5 adopts a ferromagnetically ordered state below 120 K due to couplings between S=1 /2 Ru3+ and S=1 Co1+ .
