A new perovskite cobaltite, InCoO3, was synthesized via high-pressure and high-temperature treatment at 15 GPa and 1450 °C. It crystallizes in the Pnma space group and exhibits diamagnetism with a low-spin state of Co3+ below 300 K. Comprehensive structural studies on newly developed and well-known Pnma ACoO3 perovskites (A = Sc, In, Y, Pr−Lu) highlight the role of In−O covalent bonding in InCoO3 with respect to stabilization of the orthorohombic perovskite structure.
