μ2-Oxobis[(aroxo)tris(para-tolyl)antimony]: Synthesis and Structure

详细

µ₂-Oxobis[(2,4,6-tribromophenoxo)tris(para-tolyl)antimony] (I), µ₂-oxobis[(2,3,4,5,6-pentachlorophenoxo) tris(para-tolyl)antimony] (II), and µ₂-oxobis(2,4-dinitrophenoxo)tris(para-tolyl)antimony] (III) have been synthesized with high yields by the reaction of tris(para-tolyl)antimony with 2,4,6-tribromo-, 2,3,4,5,6-pentachloro-, and 2,4-dinitrophenol, respectively, in ether in the presence of tert-butylhydroperoxide. The Sb atoms in complexes I, II, and III have a distorted trigonal bipyramidal coordination with the aroxyl ligands and the bridging oxygen atom in axial positions. The central Sb–O–Sb moiety in molecules of complexes I–III has an angular structure.
