Distortions of [Sb2Cl10]4– Bioctahedra and Phase Transitions in the Chloroantimonate(III) (C3H5NH3)2[SbCl5]·(C3H5NH3)Cl

2007

Bis(allylammonium)pentachloroantimonate(III) - allylammonium chloride, (C3H5NH3)2[SbCl5] · (C3H5NH3)Cl, belongs to the chloroantimonate(III) organic-inorganic salts family. The DSC studies of this compound showed two anomalies at 181 K and at 223 K. Both are associated with phase transitions, which mainly occur due to ordering-disordering processes of the organic cations. Between 181 and 223 K the structure is incommensurate. The crystal structure was determined at 298 and 86 K. At both temperatures the crystal structure consists of (C3H5NH3)+ cations, anionic distorted [Sb2Cl10]4− units and isolated Cl− ions. In the room-temperature phase two out of three, and in the low-temperature phase …
