Triphenylstibine is the chemical compound with the formula Sb(C6H5)3, which is often abbreviated SbPh3, This colourless solid is a common organoantimony(III) compound. It serves as a ligand in coordination chemistry[1] and as a reagent in organic synthesis.

Like the related molecules triphenylamine, triphenylphosphine and triphenylarsine, SbPh3 is pyramidal with a propeller-like arrangement of the phenyl groups. The Sb-C distances average 2.14-2.17 Å and the C-Sb-C angles are 95°.[2]

Synthesis and reactions

Triphenylstibine was first reported in 1886, being prepared from antimony trichloride and chlorobenzene:[3]

6 Na + 3 C6H5Cl + SbCl3 → (C6H5)3Sb + 6 NaCl

In an alternative method, phenylmagnesium bromide is treated with SbCl3.[4]

Upon treatment with antimony trichloride, triphenylstibine undergoes a redistribution reaction:[5]

Stiboranes can be synthesised from triphenylstibine by halogenation:

As confirmed by X-ray crystallography, Template:Chem2 features pentacoordinate Sb(V) with trans-diaxial chloride ligands.[6]
