title: Crystal structures and vibrational and solution and solid-state (CPMAS) NMR spectroscopic studies in triphenyl phosphine, arsine, and stibine silver(I) bromate systems, (R3E)xAgBrO3 (E = P, As, Sb; x = 1-4).
abstract: Adducts of triphenyl phosphine, triphenyl arsine, and triphenyl stibine with silver(I) bromate have been synthesized and characterized both in solution ((1)H and ESI MS spectroscopy) and in the solid state (IR, single-crystal X-ray structure analysis). The triphenyl phosphine complexes have been also investigated by (31)P[(1)H] solution and (31)P cross-polarization magic-angle-spinning (CPMAS) NMR spectroscopy. The topology of the structures in the solid state was found to depend on the nature of EPh(3) and on the stoichiometric ratio AgBrO(3)/EPh(3). In AgBrO(3)/PPh(3) (1:1)(4) (1) and AgBrO(3)/PPh(3) (1:2) (2), the bromate is in the unfamiliar and hitherto structurally uncharacterized role of coordinating ligand, the complex having a mononuclear form in 2 and a less familiar tetrameric form in 1. In AgBrO(3)/AsPh(3) (1:4).CH(3)OH (7) and AgBrO(3)/SbPh(3) (1:4).C(2)H(5)OH (11), the cations are the familiar homoleptic [Ag(EPh(3))(4)](+) array with the bromate role simply that of counterion. The AgBrO(3)/AsPh(3) (1:2)(2).0.7"H(2)O" derivative (6) is binuclear L(2)Ag(mu-BrO(3))(2)AgL(2) with a four-membered ring core (L = AsPh(3)).
