Extending the Time: Solvothermal Syntheses, Crystal Structures, and Properties of Two Non‐isostructural Thioantimonates with the Composition [Mn(tren)]Sb₂S₄.

Abstract

Mn(tren)]Sb2S4. -The thioantimonate (II) obtained under conditions A) (II-a) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with Z = 4, while that from prolonged reaction B) (II-b) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with Z = 8 (single crystal XRD). Both polymorphs contain anionic ∞ 1 [Sb 2 ] chains, which are formed by interconnection of SbS3 pyramids in (II-a) and by SbS3 and SbS4 units in (II-b). In (II-a) a MnSb2S3 ring appears while (II-b) contains a MnSbS2 ring. -(SCHAEFER, M.; KUROWSKI, D.; PFITZNER, A.; NAETHER, C.; REJAI, Z.; MOELLER, K.; ZIEGLER, N.; BENSCH*, W.; Inorg.
