According to the X-ray structure analysis, crystals of (NEt₄)₂[TeS₃] are monoclinic (space group P2₁/c) and form twins with the twinning plane (001); they contain pyramidal TeS₃^2– ions.

The PPh₄⁺ ions, the solvent molecules, and the chlorine atoms occupy nearly identical positions in both triclinic structures. Nevertheless, 98% of the Re≡Re groups are differently oriented within the slightly elongated Cl₈ cubes surrounding them. The space requirement of the elongated cubes seems to be more important for the orientation than electrostatic forces. The PPh₄⁺ ions form (PPh₄⁺)₂ pairs around inversion centers.

Their crystal structures were determined by X-ray diffraction. PPh₄[As₃S₃Cl₄]: a = 1187.7, b = 1090.9, c = 1191.8 pm, α = 82.91, β = 88,93, γ = 88.52°; twins with twin plane (100); R = 0.109 for 1618 observed reflexions of one twin crystal. PPh₄[As₃S₃Br₄]: a = 1119.7, b = 1177.5, c = 1204.1 pm, α = 81.59, β = 85.88, γ = 88.25°; R = 0.061 for 2331 observed reflexions. Both compounds crystallize in the space group P1 , Z = 2, and can be considered to be isotypic. Nevertheless, PPh₄[As₃S₃Br₄] does not form twins as PPh₄[As₃S₃Cl₄]. The crystals consist of PPh₄⁺ and [As₃S₃X₄]^? ions. In the anions, the three As atoms of an As₃S₃ ring in the chair conformation are commonly joined to an X atom and each As atom is bonded to one further terminal X atom. Cations and anions are packed in alternating layers.     

Synthese und Kristallstrukturen der Thiochloroantimonate(III) PPh4[Sb2SCl5] und (PPh4)2[Sb2SCl6] · CH3CN

Syntheses and Crystal Structures of the Thiochloroantimonates(III) PPh₄[Sb₂SCl₅] and (PPh₄)₂[Sb₂SCl₆]. CH₃CN (PPh₄)₂Sb₃Cl₁₁, obtained from Sb₂S₃, PPh₄Cl and HCl, reacts with Na₂S₄ in acetonitrile forming PPh₄[Sb₂SCl₅]. From this and Na₂S₄ or from (PPh₄)₂[Sb₂Cl₈] and Na₂S₄ or K₂S₅ in acetonitrile (PPh₄)₂[Sb₂SCl₆] · CH₃CN is obtained. Data obtained from the X-ray crystal structure determinations are: PPh₄[Sb₂SCl₅], monoclinic, space group P2₁/c, a = 1002.9(3), b = 1705.6(5), c = 1653.7(5) pm, β = 99.12(2)°, Z = 4, R = 0.068 for 1283 reflextions; (PPh₄)₂[Sb₂SCl₆] · CH₃CN, triclinic, space group P1 , a = 1287.8(7), b = 1343.6(9), c = 1696.5(9) pm, α = 69.82(5), β = 85.08(4), γ = 71.54(6)°, Z = 2, R = 0.059 for 6409 reflexions. In every anion two Sb atoms are linked via one sulfur and one ore two chloro atoms, respectively. Paris of [SbSCl₅]^? ions are associated via Sb …? S and Sb …? Cl contacts forming dimer units. In both compounds every Sb atom has a distorted octahedral coordination when the lone electron pair is included in the counting.
