The new phase formation in the system with nominal composition (Y 1 - x Sc x )A 2 (Cus 3 - y M y )O z (A=Ba or Sr, M=W, Fe) is studied in detail. A series of layered scandium cuprates ScSr 2 (Cu 3 - y Fe y )O z , ScBa 2 (Cu 3 - y Fe)O z (y=<1.5) and (Y 1 - x Sc x )Sr 2 (Cu 1 . 5 Fe 1 . 5 )O 2 (x=0.6) are synthesized successfully and are characterized by XRD and electron diffraction. These compounds have the same structure with 123 phases, but they show relatively large resistivities at room temperature under the present preparation conditions. The resistivity-temperature dependence shows semiconductor-like behavior.
