Abstract
Arsenic 4-methoxy-8-mercaptoquinolinate As[C9H5(4-OCH3)NS]3 (I) was synthesized and studied by X-ray diffraction. Crystals are trigonal: space group R3, a = b = 13.9867(4) Å, c = 12.4991(5) Å, γ = 120°, V = 2117.58(12) Å3, ρ = 1.519 g/cm3, Z = 3. An arsenic atom in the crystal structure occupies a special position on axis 3. The structural unit of the crystal (neutral complex I) has symmetry C3. 4-Methoxy-8-mercaptoquinoline acts as a bidentate (N,S-) ligand. The coordination polyhedron of the arsenic atom is a symmetric octahedron (3S + 3N) or, with allowance for the lone electron pair, ψ-one-capped octahedron (3S + 3N + E). Bond lengths are as follows: As-S, 2.3179(7)Å; As…N 2.688(3) Å. The geometries of coordination polyhedra of arsenic atoms are compared in the crystal structures of As(C9H6NS)3, As[C9H5(2-CH3)NS]3, and As[C9H5(4-CH3)NS]3.
