In the title compound, [Sb(C8H14NS2)3], the di­thio­carbamate groups chelate to the Sb atom in an anisobidentate manner [Sb-S = 2.530 (1) and 2.975 (1) Å]. The Sb atom lies on a threefold axis and the lone pair is also stereochemically active.

Comment top

The electron lone-pair is stereochemically active in antimony(III) and bismuth(III) tri(diethyldithiocarbamates); the dithiocarbamate group coordinates to metal atom in an anisobidentate manner and the covalent is shorter than the dative distance (Raston & White, 1976). In the title compound, (I), the dithiocarbamate anions chelate to the Sb atom in an anisobidentate manner and the lone pair is also stereochemically active; the Sb atom exists in a distorted octahedral environment.

The conformation of the dithiocabamate ligand appears to be governed by two interactions [C2···S1 = 2.943 (2) Å and C3···S2 = 3.026 (2) Å] that are characterized by H···S [H···S1 = 2.40 Å and H···S2 = 2.53 Å] distances that significantly shorter than the sum of Pauling's van der Waals radii (3.05 Å).

Experimental top

An ethanol solution of carbon disulfide was added to a solution of cyclohexylmethylamine in ethanol at 277 K followed by an aqueous solution of concentrated ammonia. The solid ammonium dithiocarbamate was isolated and this was reacted with antimony(III) trichloride in ethanol (3/1 molar stoichiometry) at 277 K. The solid product was collected and recrystallized from ethanol (m.p. 483–484 K). Elemental analysis (calculated in parenthesis) for C24H42N3S6Sb: C 42.07 (42.02), H 5.90 (6.12), N 6.15 (6.12), S 28.58% (28.01%).

Refinement top

Of the 3970 reflections, 2118 were unique reflections and 1582 were Friedel pairs.
