Triphenylantimony Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Chemical Properties

off-white powder

Uses

Stibonium salts, cocatalyst in converting trienes to aromatics and hydroaromatics, react with nitricsulfuric acid to give trinitro derivatives, polymerization inhibitor, lubricating-oil additive.

General Description

Atomic number of base material: 51 Antimony

Safety Profile

Poison by ingestion and intraperitoneal routes. Flammable when exposed to heat or flame. Can react vigorously with oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use water, foam, mist. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Sb. See also ANTIMONY COMPOUNDS.

Purification Methods

Recrystallise Ph3Sb from acetonitrile [Hayes et al. J Am Chem Soc 107 1346 1985]. [Beilstein 16 H 891, 16 IV 1198.]
