An1.33T4Al8Si2 (An = Ce, Th, U, Np; T = Ni, Co) were synthesized in metal flux reactions carried out in aluminum/gallium melts. In previous work, U1.33T4Al8Si2 (T = Co, Ni) analogues were formed by arc-melting U:T:Si and reacting this mixture in Al/Ga flux. However, in the current work, all compounds were synthesized by using AnO2 reactants, taking advantage of the ability of the aluminum in the flux to act as both solvent and reducing agent. While reactions with T = Co yielded hexagonal Gd1.33Fe4Si10-type quaternary phases for all An, reactions with T = Ni produced these compounds only with An = U and Np. For reactions with An = Ce and Th, the reactions led instead to the formation of AnNi3-xSixAl4-yGay phases, with the tetragonal KCu3S4 structure type. Attempts to synthesize plutonium analogues Pu1.33T4Al8Si2 were also unsuccessful, producing the previously reported PuCoGa5 and Pu2Ni5Si6 instead. Magnetic data collected on the neptunium analogues Np1.33T4Al8Si2 (T = Ni, Co) show antiferromagnetic coupling at low temperatures and indicate a tetravalent state for the Np ions.
