Low-temperature preparation of tungsten halide clusters: Crystal structure of the adduct W5Br12 · SbBr31

Single-crystals of a new compound W5Br12 · SbBr3 (I) were isolated as a reaction product from the reduction of WBr6 with elemental antimony at 250°C. The crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. The structure contains square-pyramidal tungsten clusters being linked into infinite [(W 5Br8i)Br3aBr 2/2a-a] chains through shared W-Bra- a-W contacts of adjacent clusters. The structure of the adduct I can be viewed as an intercalation compound composed of double-layers of cluster chains alternating with mono-layers of SbBr3 molecules. Pleiades Publishing, Ltd., 2012.
