“…Compound 3 contains a unique network topology and represents the first thioantimonate with a [Sb 10 S 17 ] 4– anion; i.e., it is the first compound with a Sb:S ratio of 1:1.7. Compounds with the next lowest ratio 1:1.67 are thioantimonates with the [Sb 6 S 10 ] 2– anion such as [Ni(dien) 2 ][Sb 6 S 10 ]·0.43 H 2 O, [Co(dien) 2 ][Sb 6 S 10 ]·0.46 H 2 O, (aep)Sb 6 S 10 (aep = 1-(2-aminoethyl)-piperazine), the isotypic compounds (cyclam)[Sb 6 S 10 ] (cyclam = 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclotetradecane), (dachH 2 )(dach)[Sb 6 S 10 ], [Ni(bipy) 3 ][Sb 6 S 10 ], and [Fe(bipy) 3 ][Sb 6 S 10 ] and [Ni(dibipy) 3 ][Sb 6 S 10 ] (dibipy = 4,4′-dimethyl-2,2′-bipyridine) . The same ratio is observed in the [Sb 9 S 15 ] 3– anion like, e.g., in (dbnH) 3 [Sb 9 S 15 ] (dbn = 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene) and in the [Sb 3 S 5 ] − anion of ( trans -1,2-dachH)[Sb 3 S 5 ]·H 2 O, ( trans -1,4-dachH)[Sb 3 S 5 ], (tma)[Sb 3 S 5 ] (tma = tetramethylammonium) and (tpa)[Sb 3 S 5 ] (tpa = tetrapropylammonium) .…”
