We report specific heat ͑C͒ and magnetization ͑M͒ of single crystalline Ce 4 Pt 12 Sn 25 at temperature down to ϳ50 mK and in fields up to 3 T. C / T exhibits a sharp anomaly at 180 mK, with a large ⌬C / T ϳ 30 J / mol Ce K 2 , which, together with the corresponding cusplike magnetization anomaly, indicates an antiferromagnetic ͑AFM͒ ground state with a Néel temperature T N = 180 m K. Numerical calculations based on a Heisenberg model reproduce both zero-field C and M data, thus placing Ce 4 Pt 12 Sn 25 in the weak exchange coupling J Ͻ J c limit of the Doniach diagram, with a very small Kondo scale T K Ӷ T N . Magnetic field suppresses the AFM state at H ء Ϸ 0.7 T, much more effectively than expected from the Heisenberg model, indicating additional effects possibly due to frustration or residual Kondo screening.
