A crystal structure determination showed that in diphenylbismuth thiocyanate the thiocyanate group bridges between pairs of bismuth atoms to give infinite chains in which alternate bismuth atoms are co-ordinated to either two nitrogen or two sulfur atoms.The conformation of the resulting chain is a 'rectangular spiral', in contrast to the 'triangular spiral' structure of the related diphenylantimony thiocyanate.Unstable diphenylantimony selenocyanate has also been prepared and the complexity in the C-N stretching region of the IR spectrum suggests a structure similar to that of the thiocyanate analogue.Diphenylarsenic thiocyanate is a liquid at room temperature and a conventional 1,3-thiocyanate-bridged structure is suggested from IR data.
