The phase diagram of the SrO–Pr2O3CoO system was constructed based on the results of X-ray diffraction of polycrystalline samples synthesized by solid-state reaction. Under the conditions of the experiment, the isothermal section contains 9 one-phase, 17 two-phase, and 9 three-phase regions. The formation of three substitutional solid solutions with extended homogeneity ranges was observed: Sr1-xPrxCoO3 with cubic perovskite-type structure (CaTiO3, Pearson symbol cP5, space group Pm-3m), Pr1-xSrxCoO3 with orthorhombic perovskite-type structure (GdFeO3, Pearson symbol oP20, space group Pnma), and Sr2-xPrxCoO4 (tetragonal Ruddlesden-Popper-type structure K2NiF4, Pearson symbol tI14, space group I4/mmm). The character of the interaction of the components in the SrO–Pr2O3CoO system is similar to that observed in the related system SrO–Nd2O3CoO.
