Abstract

The recently proposed (SO2)2N3- anion was structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction of the [Cs][(SO2)2N3] salt (P2(1)/c, a = 8.945(2) A, b = 10.454(2) A, c = 8.152(2) A, beta = 109.166(3) degrees, Z = 4, and R1 = 0.0329 at 130 K). In the (SO2)2N3- anion, both SO2 ligands are coordinated to one terminal nitrogen atom of the N3- anion.
