(CH3NH3)(2)Sb2S4 has been isolated from the reaction of antimony with sulfu
r in the presence of manganese in an ethanolic solution of methylamine unde
r solvothermal conditions. Two pyramidal SbS3 units are linked via common S
-S edges to give dimeric Sb2S42- anions, which are joined via secondary Sb.
..S contacts of 3.074(?) and 2.975(2) a forming infinite (1)(infinity)[SbS2
](-2n) chains consisting of edge-linked psi-SbS4 trigonal bipyramids. The c
is configuration of the Sb2S42- anions in the title compound is observed fo
r the first time. A specific hydrogen-bonding pattern between the amino-hyd
rogen and the sulfur atoms stabilizes this configuration and gives rise to
anionic layers separated by the methyl groups.
