In this work, the synthesis and structure of an antimony complex with an aromatic, asymmetric tridentate ligand without an Sb-C bond were studied. Ethoxy(2-salicylidenaminophenolato)antimony(III) was studied with NMR, UV-Vis, and IR spectroscopy and the molecular structure was determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The antimony atom is formally tetracoordinate in this molecule. Coordinative unsaturation becomes visible in the solid-state structure where intermolecular Sb…O interactions supplement the coordination sphere of the antimony atom to be hexacoordinated. Quantum chemical calculations were performed in order to obtain a better understanding of the bond properties in the antimony complex. These show a spherical distribution of the lone pair at antimony and polar shared bonds from antimony to the heteroatoms of the tridentate ligand.
