The high‐pressure synthesis of a manganese oxyhydride LaSrMnO 3.3 H 0.7 is reported. Neutron and X‐ray Rietveld analyses showed that this compound adopts the K 2 NiF 4 structure with hydride ions positioned exclusively at the equatorial site. This result makes a striking contrast to topochemical reductions of LaSrMnO 4 that result in only oxygen‐deficient phases down to LaSrMnO 3.5 . This suggests that high H 2 pressure plays a key role in stabilizing the oxyhydride phase, offering an opportunity to synthesize other transition‐metal oxyhydrides. Magnetic susceptibility revealed a spin‐glass transition at 24 K that is due to competing ferromagnetic (Mn 2+ –Mn 3+ ) and antiferromagnetic (Mn 2+ –Mn 2 , Mn 3+ –Mn 3+ ) interactions.
