Bis(Diethyldithiocarbamato)Antimony(III) Derivatives with Oxygen- and Sulfur-Donor Ligands: Synthesis, Esi-Mass, and Spectral Characterization

Abstract

Replacement reactions of bis(diethyldithiocarbamato)antimony(III) chloride have been carried out with oxygen and sulfur donor ligands such as disodium oxalate, sodium acetate, sodium salicylate, benzoic acid, thioglycolic acid, acetylacetone, thiphenol, ethane-1,2-dithiol, and 2,2-dimethylpropane-1,3-diol to give mixed bis(diethyldithiocarbamato)antimony(III) derivatives of the corresponding ligands. These derivatives have been characterized by the physicochemical [melting point and molecular weight determination, elemental analysis (C, H, N, S, and Sb)], spectral [FT-IR, far-IR, NMR (¹H and ¹³C)], ESI-mass, powder XRD, and SEM studies.
