SrFeCoO was synthesized by a solid-state reaction. Its structural study at room temperature using conventional X-ray as well as neutron powder diffraction, electron diffraction and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy is presented. An oxygen-vacancy ordering related to the "314" model known for the SrYCoO oxide is proposed despite neither an A-site ordering nor an A-site mismatch.

The synthesis of the parent material has been performed under high pressure/high temperature conditions. Following this, different redox reactions have been carried out on K(2)Cr(8)O(16).
