Bis(2-hydroxybenzaldehyde oximato-O)triphenylantimony(V)

L. Dong, H. Yin, L. Wen and D. Wang

Abstract: The molecule of the title compound, [Sb(C₆H₅)₃(C₇H₆NO₂)₂], is located on a twofold axis defined by the metal center and two C atoms of a coordinated phenyl group. The Sb center has a slightly distorted trigonal-bipyramidal geometry, with the axial positions occupied by the O atoms of symmetry-related 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde oximate ligands. An intramolecular O-HN interaction is present. The crystal structure is stabilized by C-HO interactions.
