Barium antimonide oxide, Ba3Sb2O.
The antimonide oxide Ba(3)Sb(2)O consists of discrete [Sb(2)](4-) and O(2-) anions, and crystallizes with a new structure type. The Sb-Sb distances are comparable to those known from electron-precise zintl phases and the tetrahedral coordination of the O(2-) anion is also observed in some other Ba-rich metallide oxides.
