Crystal structure of [Bi(N-ethylthiourea)4(ClO4)2]ClO4

详细

The structure of the bismuth(III) complex with N-ethylthiourea (Ettu) has been determined for the first time. We found that the crystal structure of [Bi(Ettu)₄(ClO₄)₂]ClO₄ is built of distorted octahedral cations [Bi(Ettu–S)₄(ClO₄)₂]ClO₄]⁺ and anions ClO₄^-. The deviation of one of the two independent Ettu molecules from the plane structure is explained by the mutual repulsion of the ligands and the formation features of hydrogen bonds. The C₂H₅(Ettu) group is in the cis position relative to the thiocarbonyl group.
