Self-assembly of square-planar halide complexes of phosphine-stabilised stibenium salts

Chem Commun (Camb). 2006 Sep 21:(35):3679-80. doi: 10.1039/b607136h. Epub 2006 Jul 5.

Abstract

Chloride and bromide ions direct the self-assembly of supramolecular square-planar halide complexes in which four trimethylphosphine-stabilised diphenylstibenium ions surround the central halide ion in discrete centrosymmetrical structures of C(4h) symmetry.
