Hydrogenation of orthorhombic KHg 2 -type R(Cu,Ni) 2 pseudobinary intermetallic compounds (R = Ce, Pr, Nd) was found to lead to the formation of an orthorhombic insertion-type hydride, which readily transforms into a hexagonal Fe 2 P-type hydride. This "post-hydrogenation" structural transformation can be accelerated by heating in vacuum at 100-120°°°°C and is accompanied by release of ¼ of the available hydrogen, as has been confirmed by PND studies. Further heating in vacuum leads to
