Here we present a DC magnetization study of novel RE3Fe3Sb7 (RE = Pr, Nd, Sm) compounds with hexagonal crystalline structure P63/m. Measurements are performed at temperatures from 2 to 400 K and fields up to 7 T by means of SQUID magnetometry on single crystals. We observe a plethora of magnetic phase transitions at temperatures below 390 K. We show that the B-T phase diagram varies with the chemical RE composition of the compound and anisotropic magnetic behavior is observed for different orientations. Below 20 K, we observe a wide magnetic hysteresis loop, while at higher temperatures soft-magnetic behavior is found. Our results suggest strong evidence for the occurence of ferrimagnetic compensation points for each compound.
