摘要:
Reactions of [R3Sb(OPri)(2)] with N-heterocylic carboxylic acids gave compounds of the type [R3Sb(O2C-Ar)(2)] (1) (R = Me, Et, Pr-i, Ph; Ar = 2-C5H4N, 2-C9H6N). The mono-bromo compound [Me3Sb(Br)(O2C-C5H4N)] (2) exists in equilibrium with [Me3Sb(O2C-C5H4N)(2)] and [Me3SbBr2]. All new compounds have been characterized by IR and NMR (H-1 and C-13{H-1}) spectral data. X-ray structural analysis of one example, [Me3Sb(O2C-C5H4N)(2)], isolated as its monohydrate, revealed an essentially trigonal bipyramidal geometry for the antimony atom defined by three equilaterally disposed methyl groups and two oxygen atoms from monodentate carboxylate groups, in apical positions. The crystal structure is consolidated into a three-dimensional network by cooperative O-H center dot center dot center dot O, O-H center dot center dot center dot N and C-H center dot center dot center dot O interactions.
