Reactions of pentaphenyland penta(para-tolyl)antimony with fumaric acid

The interaction of pentaphenylantimony with fumaric acid in benzene (24 h, 24 °С, molar ratio 4:3) gave a solvate with benzene Ph4SbOC(O)CH=CHC(O)OSbPh4 ∙ 2Ph4SbOC(O)CH=CHC(O)H ∙ 3PhH (1). At a molar ratio of the initial reagents of 2:1, the binuclear derivative of fumaric acid Ph4SbOC(O)CH=CHC(O)OSbPh4 (2) was formed. In similar reactions of penta( para -tolyl)antimony with fumaric acid, the adduct p-Tol4SbOC(O)CH=CHC(O)OSbTol4 ∙ HOC(O)CH=CHC(O)OH ∙ 4PhH (3) and the solvate of the binuclear derivative of fumaric acid with benzene p -Tol4SbOC(O)CH=СHC(O)OSbTol4 ∙ 3PhH (4) were formed, respectively.

The Sb-C bond lengths vary in a narrow range of values (2.110(3)-2.176(3) Å for 1, 2.114(2)-2.18(3) Å for 2, 2.109(5)-2.188(4) Å for 3, 2.113(5)-2.184(5) Å for 4). Structural organization in crystals is due to weak intermolecular contacts of the C=O···H type (1.83-2.71 Å for 1, 1.81-2.71 Å for 3, 2.69 Å for 4). In crystals 1, 3, 4 the blocks of two dicarboxylic acids are linked to each other via the -C=O···HOC(O)-chains (1.83, 1.83, 1.81 Å, respectively).
