Molecular structure of bis(2,8-diphenylindolizin-3-yl) disulfide

Conclusions The structure of bis(2-,8-diphenylindolizin-3-yl) disulfide was studied by x-ray structural analysis. It was shown that the unsual geometric parameters of the molecule are apparently due to the contribution of the form with the highest number of C-S bonds and that the molecule studied can be considered a double autocomplex with charge transfer.Translated from Izvestiya Akademii Nauk SSSR, Seriya Khimicheskaya, No. 12, pp. 2724–2731, December, 1985.
