Thermodynamic Properties and Molecular Dipole Moments of Antimony Compounds from Quantum Chemical Evaluations

Abstract

By the PM3 method, standard values of entropy, heats and Gibbs energies of formation and dipole moments of the molecules have been computed for a series of inorganic and organic antimony compounds. Linear dependences P exper = bP theor (where P is any of the mentioned properties) have been stated, allowing a priori evaluation of thermodynamic characteristics and molecular dipole moments of Sb-containing substances. It has been concluded that triphenylstibinedichloride in benzene solution, as well as triphenylstibinehydroxychloride in dioxane medium, exist in the form of trigonal bipyramid with two axial chlorine and oxygen atoms.
