“…Bismuth halide derivatives are usually characterized by their ability to exhibit a wide range of geometry, stoichiometry and connectivity by sharing corners, edges or planes. To date, an extensive family of bismuth(III) halogen anions like ([BiX 4 ] – , [BiX 5 ] 2– , [BiX 6 ] 3– , [Bi 2 X 9 ] 3– , [Bi 2 X 10 ] 4– , [Bi 2 X 11 ] 5– , [Bi 3 X 12 ] 3– , [Bi 4 X 18 ] 6– , [Bi 6 X 22 ] 4– , and [Bi 8 X 30 ] 4– ) have been reported, which makes the crystal chemistry of halogenobismuthate(III) extremely diverse and complex. On the other hand, crown ethers are cyclic polyether of macrocyclic molecules having utmost interest in the field of supramolecular chemistry.…”
