Organoantimony(V) Oxido Cubane Cluster [(<i>p</i>-X-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>Sb)<sub>4</sub>(O)<sub>4</sub>(Ph<sub>2</sub>SiO<sub>2</sub>)<sub>4</sub>] (X = Cl, Br) Stabilized by Diphenyldisiloxides M.

Single-crystal X-ray structural elucidation reveals the formation of the products [(p-Cl-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>Sb)<sub>4</sub>(O)<sub>4</sub>(Ph<sub>2</sub>SiO<sub>2</sub>)<sub>4</sub>] (<b>1</b>) and [(p-Br-C<sub>6</sub>H<sub>4</sub>Sb)<sub>4</sub>(O)<sub>4</sub>(Ph<sub>2</sub>SiO<sub>2</sub>)<sub>4</sub>] (<b>2</b>), respectively. The clusters <b>1</b> and <b>2</b> were isostructural; the core consists of a distorted Sb<sub>4</sub>O<sub>4</sub> cubane framework with the siloxides acting as bridging ligands across the antimony atoms present at alternate corners of the cube. 2009-07-13 00:00:00 clusters 1 refluxing toluene 6H 6 h antimony atoms Sb 4O cubane framework
