A series of solid solutions AlFe.sub.2.sub._.sub.xMnxB.sub.2 have been synthesized by arc-melting and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, and magnetic measurements. All the compounds adopt the parent AlFe.sub.2B.sub.2-type structure, in which infinite zigzag chains of B atoms are connected by Fe atoms into [Fe.sub.2B.sub.2] slabs that alternate with layers of Al atoms along the b axis. The parent AlFe.sub.2B.sub.2 is a ferromagnet with T.sub.c=282 K. A systematic investigation of solid solutions AlFe.sub.2.sub._.sub.xMn.sub.x.B.sub.2 showed a non-linear change in the structural and magnetic behavior. The ferromagnetic ordering temperature is gradually decreased as the Mn content (x) increases. The substitution of Mn for Fe offers a convenient method for the adjustment of the ferromagnetic ordering temperature of AlFe.sub.2B.sub.2.
