Cation ordering in ABO<sub>3sub> perovskites adds to their chemical variety and can lead to properties such as ferrimagnetism and magnetoresistance in Sr<sub>2sub>FeMoO<sub>6sub>. Through high-pressure and high-temperature synthesis, a new type of “double double perovskite” structure has been discovered in the family MnRMnSbO<sub>6sub> (R=La, Pr, Nd, Sm). This tetragonal structure has a 1:1 order of cations on both A and B sites, with A-site Mn<sup>2+sup> and R<sup>3+sup> cations ordered in columns and Mn<sup>2+sup> and Sb<sup>5+sup> having rock salt order on the B sites. The MnRMnSbO<sub>6sub> double double perovskites are ferrimagnetic at low temperatures with additional spin-reorientation transitions. The ordering direction of ferrimagnetic Mn spins in MnNdMnSbO<sub>6sub> changes from parallel to [001] below T<sub>Csub>=76 K to perpendicular below the reorientation transition at 42 K at which Nd moments also order. Smaller rare earths lead to conventional monoclinic double perovskites (MnR)MnSbO<sub>6sub> for Eu and Gd.
