Abstract

The reaction of antimony(III)chloride and antimony(V)chloride in acetonitrile in the presence of the azamacrocyclic ligand Me 3[9]aneN 3 provides the golden-yellow ionic compound [SbCl 2(Me 3[9]aneN 3][SbCl 6]. X-ray structural characterization reveals the cation as five-coordinate with Ψ-octahedral metal geometry featuring a cis-SbCl 2 + unit coordinated to the three donor nitrogen atoms of the ligand ( fac) and a stereochemically active lone pair occupying the sixth site in a trans-position to a ring nitrogen atom.
