Sodium thioantimoniate or sodium tetrathioantimonate(V) is an inorganic compound with the formula Template:Chem2. The nonahydrate of this chemical, Template:Chem2, is known as Schlippe's salt, named after Johann Karl Friedrich von Schlippe (1799–1867). These compounds are examples of sulfosalts. They were once of interest as species generated in qualitative inorganic analysis.

Structure

File:Na3SbS4.jpg
Anhydrous NaSbS3 has a complicated structure featuring SbS4 tetrahedra interconnected by Na-S bonds. Color scheme: red = Sb, yellow = S, violet = Na.

The nonahydrate consists of the tetrahedral tetrathioantimonate(V) anions Template:Chem2 and sodium cations Template:Chem2, which are hydrated. The Sb-S distance is 2.33 Å.[1][2] Related salts are known for different cations including ammonium and potassium.

The anhydrous salt is a polymer with tetrahedral Na and Sb sites.[3]

Preparation

Sodium tetrathioantimonate nonahydrate is prepared by the reaction of "antimony trisulfide", elemental sulfur, and aqueous sulfide source.[4]

Template:Chem2

The Na2S can be generated in situ by the reaction of sodium hydroxide and S (co-generating sodium sulfate):

Template:Chem2

Charcoal can also be used to reduce the sulfur.

The required antimony trisulfide is prepared by treatment of Sb(III) compounds with sulfide sources:

Template:Chem2

Reactions

The hydrate dissolves in water to give the tetrahedral Template:Chem2 ion. The salt gives antimony pentasulfide upon acidification:
