Abstract
The pentakis ethylenediammonium bis undecachlorodiantimonate(III) tetrahydrate salt is monoclinic with the following unit cell dimensions:a=16.271(5) Å,b=13.004(4) Å,c=13.932(4) Å, β=111.72(2)°, space groupP21/c withZ=2. The structure was solved by Patterson methods and refined to a finalR value of 0.023 for 4435 reflections withF 0>4σ(F 0). The structure shows a layer arrangement perpendicular to thea axis: planes of the [Sb2Cl11]5− bioctahedra alternate with planes of [NH3(CH2)2NH3]2+ dications. The [Sb2Cl11]5− bioctahedra are connected through O−H...Cl hydrogen bonds, such that infinite chains of composition [Sb2Cl11(H2O]n 5n− are formed in the structure, parallel to the twofold axis. These chains are themselves interconnected by means of N−H...Cl and O−H...Cl bonds originating from the [NH3(CH2)2NH3]2+ entities and the water molecules, respectively, and form a threedimensional network.
