The structure of onoratoite, (, Br) revisited

Hydrothermal synthesis of antimony oxychloride and oxide nanocrystals: Sb4O5Cl2, Sb8O11Cl2, and Sb2O3

“…Valentinite is a major component of the Sb 2 O 3 -B 2 O 3 binary glasses possessing nonlinear optical properties [6]. Besides senarmontite, some other antimony oxychlorides (SbOCl, Sb 4 O 5 Cl 2 , Sb 8 O 11 Cl 2 ) also exhibit excellent flame retardancy when utilized alone or in combination with halogenated organic compounds [7].…”

“…Nevertheless, a couple of nanostructured antimony oxychlorides were prepared previously. For example, Johnsson and co-workers prepared Sb 8 O 11 Cl 2 single crystals from Sb 2 O 3 and SbCl 3 at 500 1C [11]. In addition, Sb 4 O 5 Cl 2 single crystals were recently synthesized in aqueous HCl solution [12].…”

Li17Sb13S28: A New Lithium Ion Conductor and addition to the Phase Diagram Li2S–Sb2S3

“…[30,31] Distorted trigonal bipyramids[ SbO 4 E]a nd distorted tetrahedra [SbO 3 E]a re frequently observed. [32][33][34] Distorted tetragonal bipyramids [SbS 5 E]a re also known, for instance,i nb-LiSbS 2 or CuSbS 2 . [2,35] Am odel has been proposed for oxidesw here the lone electron pair hast he same volumea sa no xygen atom and thus can be considered as an atom of the coordination polyhedron.…”

Chlorine or Bromine? When size really does matter

“…Whereas chloride ions are small enough to fit into this cavity bromide ions are too big and it is replaced by an oxygen ion. In contrast to compounds like CuSb 2 O 3 Br 2, where the CuBr part and the Sb 2 O 3 part are separated from each other, Sb 12 O 18 molecules are connected by RE‐O/halogen three dimensional networks in the present cases.…”
