Synthese und Kristallstruktur von [Na3(H2O)6,5(EtOH)][PhSnS3] · 3 EtOH

Synthesis and Crystal Structure of Na₃(H₂O)_6,5(EtOH)]PhSnS₃] · 3 EtOH Ph₄Sn₄S₆ reacts with Na₂S · 5 H₂O in aqueous acetone to form Na₃PhSnS₃]. Recrystallization of the crude product from ethanol leads to colourless needles of Na₃(H₂O)_6,5(EtOH)]PhSnS₃] · 3 EtOH 1 . The crystal structure of 1 was determined by X-ray diffraction. 1 consists of PhSnS₃]^3– anions and sodium cations which are coordinated by water, ethanol and sulfur atoms of the PhSnS₃]^3– anions. The PhSnS₃]^3– anion contains a tin atom which is coordinated nearly tetrahedrally by a phenyl group and three sulfur atoms. The Sn–S bonds are 237,4(2)–238,4(2) pm.
