Structures of Sb(OC(6)H(3)Me(2)-2,6)(3) and Sb(OEt)(5) x NH(3): the first authenticated monomeric Sb(OR)(n) (n = 3, 5).
The first monomeric antimony alkoxides, Sb(OC(6)H(3)Me(2))(3) (1) and Sb(OEt)(5) x NH(3) (2), have been crystallographically characterized. The former adopts a trigonal pyramidal geometry, while the latter is octahedral about antimony; hydrogen bonding between NH(3) and SbOEt groups in Sb(OEt)(5) small middle dotNH(3) creates a one-dimensional lattice arrangement. Reaction of pyridine with SbCl(5) in EtOH/hexane yields the salt [Hpy(+)](9)[Sb(2)Cl(11)(5)(-)][Cl(-)](4) (3), which has also been crystallographically characterized. Crystallographic data: 1, C(24)H(27)O(3)Sb, a = 10.9080(2), b = 11.9660(2), c = 17.7260(4) A, alpha = 109.740(1) degrees, monoclinic P2(1)/c (unique axis a), Z = 4; 2, C(10)H(28)NO(5)Sb, a = 7.7220(1), b = 19.0700(2), c = 21.6800(3) A, beta = 93.4960(7) degrees, monoclinic P2(1)/c, Z = 8; 3, C(45)H(54)Cl(15)N(9)Sb(2), a = 13.4300(2), b = 14.4180(2), c = 17.4180(3) A, alpha = 82.7650(7), beta = 77.5570(7), gamma = 70.7670(7) degrees, triclinic P1, Z = 2.
